Hello everybody :-)
i just switched pills and I am now on apri
(the generic for desogen) I was wondering
if anyone has experience with apri :-) or
if anyone found a difference between apri
and desogen
thanks a lot.

That was the last pill that I was on. It
made my hormones soar like crazy but my
skin ws always clear. I never had any
problems with pregnancy while on it, and
the clear skin was great, it was just a
little problematic with my hormones.
Hope this helps,
casey

I just got switched from desongen which I
had been on for over a year to Apri and
was told they are the same that one is the
generic of the other, but I found that
this month I've been really moody and
anxious, has anyone had a similar
experience or am I going crazy? Is it even
possible if the pills are chemically
identical?

They should chemically be the same that's
what generics are is the same active
chemicals. (I work as a pharmacy tech) The
only difference should be the filler which
for 90% of people on ANY drug this does
not affect them. I would call your dr and
check with him on the stuff going on. You
never know it could be something else or
maybe you do need to change to something
different. Hope you are doing better!

I was on Apri for almost 3 years and never
had a problem with it. My face was always
clear and it never affected my mood.
However I am pregnant now so I dont take
it anymore.
