Indikasi Terapi:

Cyred® (Desogestrel and Ethinyl Estradiol Tablets USP, 0.15 mg/0.03 mg) is indicated for the prevention of pregnancy in women who elect to use oral contraceptives as a method of contraception. Oral contraceptives are highly effective. Table 1 lists the typical accidental pregnancy rates for users of combined oral contraceptives and other methods of contraception. The efficacy of these contraceptive methods, except sterilization, the IUD, and the Norplant System depends upon the reliability with which they are used. Correct and consistent use of these methods can result in lower failure rates. In a clinical trial with desogestrel and ethinyl estradiol tablets, 1,195 subjects completed 11,656 cycles and a total of 10 pregnancies were reported. This represents an overall user-efficacy (typical user-efficacy) pregnancy rate of 1.12 per 100 women-years. This rate includes patients who did not take the drug correctly.

CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
PHARMACODYNAMICS
Combined oral contraceptives act by suppression of gonadotropins.
Although the primary mechanism of
this action is inhibition of ovulation, other alterations include
changes in the cervical mucus, which
increase the difficulty of sperm entry into the uterus, and changes in
the endometrium which reduce the
likelihood of implantation.
Receptor binding studies, as well as studies in animals, have shown
that 3-keto-desogestrel, the
biologically active metabolite of desogestrel, combines high
progestational activity with minimal
intrinsic androgenicity.
