Contraception.
NuvaRing is intended for women of fertile age. The safety and efficacy
have been established in women
aged 18 to 40 years.
The decision to prescribe NuvaRing should take into consideration the
individual woman's current risk
factors, particularly those for venous thromboembolism (VTE), and how
the risk of VTE with NuvaRing
compares with other combined hormonal contraceptives (CHCs) (see
sections 4.3 and 4.4).
4.2 Posology and method of administration
Posology
To achieve contraceptive effectiveness, NuvaRing must be used as
directed (see 'How to use NuvaRing'
and 'How to start NuvaRing').
_Paediatric population_
The safety and efficacy of NuvaRing in adolescents under the age of 18
have not been studied.
Method of administration
HOW TO USE NUVARING

should advise the woman how to
insert and remove NuvaRing. For insertion the woman should choose a
position that is most comfortable
for her, e.g. standing with one leg up, squatting, or lying down.
NuvaRing should be compressed and
inserted into the vagina until it feels comfortable. An optional
alternative is to insert the ring using the
NuvaRing Applicator which is distributed separately or is included in
the package. The NuvaRing
