following a break of 4 or
more weeks

Please be alert and see your doctor if you think you may have symptoms
of a blood clot (see

THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
Oral contraception.
The decision to prescribe Julia should take into consideration the

compares with other combined hormonal contraceptives (CHCs) (see
sections 4.3 and 4.4).

Route of administration: oral use
HOW TO TAKE JULIA
The tablets must be taken every day at about the same time, if
necessary with a little liquid, in the
order shown on the blister pack. One tablet is to be taken daily for
21 consecutive days. Each
subsequent pack is started after a 7-day tablet-free interval, during
which time a withdrawal bleed
usually occurs. This usually starts on day 2-3 after the last tablet
and may not have finished before the
next pack is started.
HOW TO START JULIA
-
No preceding hormonal contraceptive use (in the past month)
Tablet-taking has to start on day 1 of the woman's natural cycle (i.e.
the first day of her menstrual
bleeding).
-
Changing from another combined hormonal contraceptive (combined oral
contraceptive (COC),
vaginal ring or transdermal patch)
The woman should start with Julia preferably on the day after the last
active tablet (the last tablet
containing the active substances) of her previous COC, but at the
latest on the day following the usual
