CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Combination oral contraceptives primarily 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 the endometrium (which reduce
the likelihood of implantation).
INDICATIONS AND USAGE

women who elect to use Myzilra
Tablets as a method of contraception. Oral contraceptives are highly
