Good morning
I would like to ask if taking Zahron 10mg (rosuvastatin) reduces the effectiveness of the Atywia contraceptive pill?
I have attached a photo of what is written in the Zahron leaflet. I quote: "Zahron can change the effect of these drugs or these drugs can change the effect of Zahron"
How? So does zahrone reduce the effectiveness of contraception?
Thank you and best regards

The combination of Zahron, which contains rosuvastatin and oral contraceptives, may lead to an increase in plasma hormone levels, which in turn may increase the possibility of contraceptive side effects.
However, the combined use of these preparations does not reduce the effectiveness of hormonal contraception.
If you experience any side effects during therapy, please see your doctor, who will decide on further therapy based on them.
