You should always tell your doctor what medications (including herbal medicines) the woman is taking or has recently taken. It is also necessary to inform any doctor, including a dentist who prescribes other medications, as well as the pharmacist who sells the drug, that the patient is taking the drug Atywia®.

In some cases, the doctor may recommend that the woman additionally use a barrier method of contraception (condom).

Undesirable effects

When taking combined oral contraceptives, irregular bleeding (spotting or breakthrough bleeding) may occur, especially during the first months of use.

Against the background of taking the drug Janine® in women, other undesirable effects were observed, as indicated in the table below. Within each group, allocated according to the frequency of the undesirable effect, the undesirable effects are presented in descending order of severity.

By frequency, adverse effects are divided into frequent (≥1/100 and <1/10), infrequent (≥1/1000 and <1/100), and rare (≥1/10000 and <1/1000). For additional undesirable effects identified only in the course of post-marketing observations and for which it is not possible to estimate the frequency, "frequency unknown" is indicated.

The following adverse effects have been reported in women receiving CCP (see also section " Special instructions»):

- venous thromboembolic complications,

- arterial thromboembolic complications,

- cerebrovascular complications,

- hypertension,

- hypertriglyceridemia,

- changes in glucose tolerance or effects on peripheral tissue insulin resistance,

- liver tumors (benign or malignant),

Therapeutic indications

Contraception.

Contraception.

contraception (prevention of unwanted pregnancy),

treatment of mild to moderate acne in women who need contraception, with the ineffectiveness of other treatment methods (local treatment or the use of systemic antibiotics).

Pharmacotherapeutic group

• Combined contraceptive (progestogen estrogen) [Estrogens, progestogens, their homologs and antagonists in combinations]

Pharmacodynamic properties

The contraceptive effect of Janine® It is carried out through various complementary mechanisms, the most important of which are the suppression of ovulation and the change in the viscosity of the cervical mucus, as a result of which it becomes impervious to sperm.

When used correctly, the Perl index (a measure that reflects the number of pregnancies in 100 women taking the contraceptive during the year) is less than 1. If you skip the tablets or use them incorrectly, the Pearl index may increase.

The gestagenic component of Janine® - dienogest-has antiandrogenic activity, which is confirmed by the results of a number of clinical studies. In addition, dienogest improves the blood lipid profile (increases the amount of HDL).

In women taking combined oral contraceptives, the menstrual cycle becomes more regular, painful menstruation is less frequent, the intensity and duration of bleeding decreases, as a result of which the risk of iron deficiency anemia decreases. In addition, there is evidence of a reduced risk of endometrial cancer and ovarian cancer.

The drug Atywia® - low-dose monophasic oral combined estrogen-gestagenic contraceptive drug.

The contraceptive effect of the drug Atywia® It is based on the combined action of various factors, the most important of which is the suppression of ovulation and an increase in the viscosity of the secret of the cervix.

Progestogenic component of the drug Atywia® - dienogest-is a derivative of nortestosterone and has an antiandrogenic effect. Dienogest also has a beneficial effect on the lipid profile, increasing the HDL content.

In women taking COC, the cycle becomes more regular, painful menstruation is less frequent, and the intensity and duration of bleeding decreases.

Pharmacokinetic properties

Dienogest

Absorption. After oral administration, dienogest is rapidly and almost completely absorbed. Cmax in the blood plasma (51 ng / ml) is reached in (2.4±1.4) hours after taking a single dose. Bioavailability in combination with ethinyl estradiol is about 96%.

Distribution. Dienogest binds to serum albumin (90%) and does not bind to specific transport proteins — SHBG and corticosteroid-binding globulin (CSG). Any effect on the processes of physiological transport of endogenous steroids is unlikely. The increase in the concentration of SHBG induced by ethinylestradiol does not affect the binding of dienogest to serum proteins.

Metabolism. Dienogest is metabolized primarily by hydroxylation, but also by hydrogenation, conjugation, and aromatization to form inactive metabolites. The total clearance after taking a single dose is 3.6 l/h.

Output. T1/2 dienogest is 8.5-10.8 hours. A small amount of dienogest is excreted unchanged by the kidneys. Its metabolites are excreted by the kidneys and with bile in a ratio of 3:1. T1/2 the total number of metabolites is 14.4 hours.

Css. The pharmacokinetics of dienogest are not affected by the concentration of SHBG. After taking a daily dose, the concentration of the drug in the blood plasma increases approximately 1-5 times, and equilibrium is achieved after taking about 4 daily doses.

Ethinyl Estradiol

Absorption. After oral administration, ethinylestradiol is rapidly and completely absorbed. Cmax in blood plasma (67 ng / ml) is reached within 1.5-4 hours. During absorption and first passage through the liver, ethinylestradiol is metabolized, resulting in an average oral bioavailability of 44%.

Distribution. Ethinylestradiol is almost completely (98%), although non-specifically, bound by albumin. Ethinylestradiol induces the synthesis of SHBG. Fixed Vd ethinyl estradiol is 2.8–8.6 l/kg.

Metabolism. Ethinylestradiol undergoes presystemic conjugation both in the mucosa of the small intestine and in the liver. The main pathway of metabolism is aromatic hydroxylation, followed by conjugation with glucuronic and / or sulfuric acids. The rate of metabolic clearance from blood plasma is 2.3–7 ml/min/kg.

Output. The concentration of ethinyl estradiol in the blood plasma decreases, and the decrease is biphasic, the first phrase is characterized by T1/2 about 1 hour, the second — 10-20 hours. In an unmodified form is not displayed. Ethinylestradiol metabolites are excreted by the kidneys and liver in a ratio of 4: 6, with T1/2 for about 24 hours.

Css. It is achieved during the second half of the treatment cycle, when the levels of the drug in the serum become 2 times higher compared to a single dose.

Qualitative and quantitative composition

Dienogest, Ethinyl Estradiol

Dosage (Posology) and method of administration

Inside, with a small amount of water, daily at about the same time of day, in the order indicated on the package. Take 1 tablet a day, continuously for 21 days. Taking the next package begins after a 7-day break in taking pills, during which there is usually a withdrawal bleeding. Bleeding, as a rule, begins on the 2nd-3rd day after taking the last dragee and may not end until the start of taking a new package.

Zhanin's reception® they start:

- in the absence of taking any hormonal contraceptives in the previous month. Zhanin's reception® it begins on the first day of the menstrual cycle (i.e., on the first day of menstrual bleeding). It is allowed to start taking on the 2nd-5th day of the menstrual cycle, but in this case it is recommended to additionally use a barrier method of contraception during the first 7 days of taking pills from the first package,

- when switching from other combined oral contraceptives (from the vaginal ring, transdermal patch). It is preferable to start taking Janine® the day after taking the last active dragee from the previous package, but in no case later than the next day after the usual 7-day break (for drugs containing 21 dragees), or after taking the last inactive dragee (for drugs containing 28 dragees in the package). When switching from the vaginal ring, transdermal patch, it is preferable to start taking Janine® on the day of removal of the ring or patch, but not later than the day when a new ring should be inserted or a new patch applied,

- when switching from contraceptives containing only progestogens ("mini-pili", injectable forms, implants), or an intrauterine contraceptive releasing progestogen (Mirena). A woman can switch from "mini-pili" to Janine® on any day (without a break), from the implant or intrauterine contraceptive with gestagen — on the day of its removal, from the injection form-from the day when the next injection should have been made. In all cases, it is necessary to use an additional barrier method of contraception during the first 7 days of taking pills,

- after an abortion in the first trimester of pregnancy. A woman can start taking the drug immediately. If this condition is met, the woman does not need additional contraceptive protection,

- after childbirth or abortion in the second trimester of pregnancy. It is recommended to start taking the drug on the 21st-28th day after delivery or abortion in the second trimester of pregnancy. If the reception is started later, it is necessary to use an additional barrier method of contraception during the first 7 days of taking pills. If the woman has already lived a sexual life, before the start of taking Zhanin® pregnancy should be excluded or it is necessary to wait for the first menstruation.

Reception of missed pills. If the delay in taking the drug was less than 12 hours, the contraceptive protection is not reduced. The woman should take the pills as soon as possible, the next one is taken at the usual time.

If the delay in taking pills was more than 12 hours, contraceptive protection may be reduced. In this case, you can follow the following two basic rules:

- the drug should never be interrupted for more than 7 days,

- to achieve adequate suppression of hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian regulation, 7 days of continuous intake of pills are required.

If the delay in taking the pills was more than 12 hours (the interval from the moment of taking the last pill is more than 36 hours), the following tips can be given.

The first week of taking the drug

A woman should take the last missed dragee as soon as possible (even if this means taking two dragees at the same time). The next dragee is taken at the usual time. Additionally, a barrier method of contraception (such as a condom) should be used for the next 7 days. If sexual intercourse took place within a week before skipping the pills, it is necessary to take into account the probability of pregnancy. The more pills missed and the closer the break in the intake of active substances, the greater the likelihood of pregnancy.

The second week of taking the drug

A woman should take the last missed dragee as soon as possible (even if this means taking two dragees at the same time). The next dragee is taken at the usual time.

Provided that the woman took the pills correctly during the 7 days preceding the first missed pill, there is no need to use additional contraceptive measures. Otherwise, as well as when skipping two or more pills, it is necessary to additionally use barrier methods of contraception (for example, a condom) for 7 days.

The third week of taking the drug

The risk of a decrease in reliability is inevitable due to the upcoming break in the intake of pills.

A woman should strictly adhere to one of the following two options (if in the 7 days preceding the first missed pill, all the pills were taken correctly, there is no need to use additional contraceptive methods):

1. A woman should take the last missed dragee as soon as possible (even if this means taking two dragees at the same time). The next dragee is taken at the usual time, until the dragees from the current package run out. The next package should be started immediately. Withdrawal bleeding is unlikely until the second package is finished, but spotting and breakthrough bleeding may occur while taking pills.

2. A woman can also stop taking pills from the current package. Then she should take a break for 7 days, including the day of skipping the pills, and then start taking a new package.

If a woman has missed taking pills and then during a break in taking pills she does not have withdrawal bleeding, it is necessary to exclude pregnancy.

Advice in case of vomiting and diarrhea

If a woman has had vomiting or diarrhea within up to 4 hours after taking active pills, absorption may be incomplete, and additional contraceptive measures should be taken. In these cases, you should be guided by the recommendations when skipping the intake of pills.

Changing the day of the beginning of the menstrual cycle

In order to delay the start of menstruation, a woman should continue taking pills from a new package of Zhanin® immediately after taking all the pills from the previous one, without a break in the reception. The pills from this new package can be taken for as long as the woman wants (until the package is finished). Against the background of taking the drug from the second package, a woman may experience spotting or breakthrough uterine bleeding. To restart Janine® from the new pack follows after the usual 7-day break.

In order to move the day of the beginning of menstruation to another day of the week, a woman should be recommended to shorten the nearest break in taking pills for as many days as she wants. The shorter the interval, the higher the risk that she will not have withdrawal bleeding and will continue to have spotting and breakthrough bleeding during the second package (as well as in the case when she would like to delay the start of menstruation).

A woman can switch from "mini-pili" to Atywia® on any day (without a break), from the implant or intrauterine contraceptive with gestagen — on the day of its removal, from the injection form-from the day when the next injection should have been made. In all cases, it is necessary to use an additional barrier method of contraception during the first 7 days of taking pills,

- after an abortion in the first trimester of pregnancy. A woman can start taking the drug immediately. If this condition is met, the woman does not need additional contraceptive protection,

- after childbirth or abortion in the second trimester of pregnancy. It is recommended to start taking the drug on the 21st-28th day after delivery or abortion in the second trimester of pregnancy. If the reception is started later, it is necessary to use an additional barrier method of contraception during the first 7 days of taking pills. If the woman has already lived a sexual life, before taking the Atywiaa® pregnancy should be excluded or it is necessary to wait for the first menstruation.

Reception of missed pills. If the delay in taking the drug was less than 12 hours, the contraceptive protection is not reduced. The woman should take the pills as soon as possible, the next one is taken at the usual time.

If the delay in taking pills was more than 12 hours, contraceptive protection may be reduced. In this case, you can follow the following two basic rules:

- the drug should never be interrupted for more than 7 days,

- to achieve adequate suppression of hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian regulation, 7 days of continuous intake of pills are required.

If the delay in taking the pills was more than 12 hours (the interval from the moment of taking the last pill is more than 36 hours), the following tips can be given.

The first week of taking the drug

A woman should take the last missed dragee as soon as possible (even if this means taking two dragees at the same time). The next dragee is taken at the usual time. Additionally, a barrier method of contraception (such as a condom) should be used for the next 7 days. If sexual intercourse took place within a week before skipping the pills, it is necessary to take into account the probability of pregnancy. The more pills missed and the closer the break in the intake of active substances, the greater the likelihood of pregnancy.

The second week of taking the drug

A woman should take the last missed dragee as soon as possible (even if this means taking two dragees at the same time). The next dragee is taken at the usual time.

Provided that the woman took the pills correctly during the 7 days preceding the first missed pill, there is no need to use additional contraceptive measures. Otherwise, as well as when skipping two or more pills, it is necessary to additionally use barrier methods of contraception (for example, a condom) for 7 days.

The third week of taking the drug

The risk of a decrease in reliability is inevitable due to the upcoming break in the intake of pills.

A woman should strictly adhere to one of the following two options (if in the 7 days preceding the first missed pill, all the pills were taken correctly, there is no need to use additional contraceptive methods):

1. A woman should take the last missed dragee as soon as possible (even if this means taking two dragees at the same time). The next dragee is taken at the usual time, until the dragees from the current package run out. The next package should be started immediately. Withdrawal bleeding is unlikely until the second package is finished, but spotting and breakthrough bleeding may occur while taking pills.

2. A woman can also stop taking pills from the current package. Then she should take a break for 7 days, including the day of skipping the pills, and then start taking a new package.

If a woman has missed taking pills and then during a break in taking pills she does not have withdrawal bleeding, it is necessary to exclude pregnancy.

Advice in case of vomiting and diarrhea

If a woman has had vomiting or diarrhea within up to 4 hours after taking active pills, absorption may be incomplete, and additional contraceptive measures should be taken. In these cases, you should be guided by the recommendations when skipping the intake of pills.

Changing the day of the beginning of the menstrual cycle

In order to delay the start of menstruation, a woman should continue taking pills from a new package of Atywiaa® immediately after taking all the pills from the previous one, without a break in the reception. The pills from this new package can be taken for as long as the woman wants (until the package is finished). Against the background of taking the drug from the second package, a woman may experience spotting or breakthrough uterine bleeding. Resume receiving Atywiaa® from the new pack follows after the usual 7-day break.

In order to move the day of the beginning of menstruation to another day of the week, a woman should be recommended to shorten the nearest break in taking pills for as many days as she wants. The shorter the interval, the higher the risk that she will not have withdrawal bleeding and will continue to have spotting and breakthrough bleeding during the second package (as well as in the case when she would like to delay the start of menstruation).
