Ovranette Tablets

There is no evidence to suggest that any particular food group or alcohol has a direct effect on the efficacy of a patient’s Ovranette. However, you should consult your doctor or prescriber if you are concerned about your alcohol or food consumption affecting your medication.

The usefulness and efficiency of an orally taken Ovranette can be affected by the use of enzyme-inducing drugs. You should consult with your doctor or prescriber if you are concerned that your enzyme-inducing medication may affect the efficacy of your Ovranette.

Ovranette contains two active ingredients, which are ethinylestradiol and levonorgestrel whereas ellaOne contains ulipristal as its active ingredient.  

ellaOne stops progesterone from working normally, which then causes the delayed release of an egg. ellaOne is also referred to as the morning-after pill but is not effective if you have ovulated. 

We recommend that all of our patients consult either their doctor or prescriber they buy and take Ovranette or any form of contraceptive. This is to ensure that they receive the correct treatment for them.

Ovranette can prevent unwanted pregnancy. It is a combined pill that some patients may prefer over progesterone-only pills.
