Good morning Will augmentin weaken the effect of the dionelle (contraceptive) I am currently taking? Does the risk of getting pregnant increase?

Yes. The amoxicillin contained in Augmentin disrupts the composition of the bacterial flora in the intestines, which is necessary to convert the hormones contained in all types of pills into active forms, which limits their absorption from the tablets into the blood It is recommended that during the use of the antibiotic and 7 days after the end, additional methods of contraception (e.g. a condom) be used. Then the protection will be preserved. For more information on drugs that have a real impact on reducing contraceptive protection, I refer to the article: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jakie-leki-oslabiaja-skutecznosc-antykoncepcji https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jak-prawidlowo-stosowac-antykoncepcje
I have a similar question, I also took augumentin and dionelle at the same time while taking an antibiotic, I had spotting of fresh blood, and when I stopped taking dionelle, after 21 days menstruation has not occurred so far, do I have anything to be afraid of, I will add that I have stomach pain and problems with urination
