Women's Ultra Mega Dietary Supplement And Yaz
Posted: 08-24-07 15:20pm

There is so much talk about drug interactions decreasing effectiveness of the pill....does GNC's Women's Ultra Mega Dietary Supplement interact with YAZ birth control? I've only been on YAZ for 3 months and have missed my period in month 2, but had it months 1 and 3.

Thanks.....

The only known drugs that interact with birth control causing them to be less effective are antibiotics.

It is not just antibiotics....

I would call my doctor and make sure. Some herbal/dietary supplements can have effects- especially if there is any weight loss supplements (I doubt there is but you never know) or St. John's wort...

It never hurts to call and check.
