WHAT AIDULAN 30/75 TABLETS IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Aidulan 30/75
is a combined oral contraceptive and belongs to a group of drugs which
is frequently
called “the Pill”. It contains two types of hormone: an oestrogen,
named ethinylestradiol and a
progestogen type, named gestodene. These hormones stop the ovary from
releasing an egg each month
(ovulation). They also thicken the fluid (mucus) at the neck of the
womb (cervix) making it more
difficult for the sperm to reach the egg, and alter the lining of the
womb to make it less likely to accept
a fertilised egg.

recommended that a barrier method also be used (e.g. condom or
spermicide) for the first 7 days, while
Pills are taken during the first cycle.
