Yaz anti-depressant interactions Posted: 01-28-08 02:35am
Hello! I've just begun Yaz after being
without birth control for about 2 years.
My period started 1/17 and ended 1/20, I
started Yaz on 1/23 because I thought that
you could start whenever you liked as long
as you knew you weren't pregnant and used
alternate protection for 7 days. Now, I'm
thinking I imagined that (or that it was
for other BCPs) because I can't find that
information in the leaflet or on their
website. Will I be protected after 7 days
(1/30-1/31)?
Also, I can't find any information as to
if Yaz has any interactions with Effexor
XR. I take 300mg a day, if that matters at
all.
Thanks in advance, I feel silly but I'd
rather be safe than not.

You are correct! You can start anytime you
like, and the you would be protected after
7 days.
It is on the website, but they state it in
a way that can be confusing.
