Aubra

Aubra is a combination oral contraceptive pill containing levonorgestrel (a progestin) and ethinyl estradiol (an estrogen). It is used to prevent pregnancy by inhibiting ovulation, altering cervical mucus to prevent sperm from reaching the egg, and changing the uterine lining to prevent implantation. In addition to contraception, Aubra may also be used to regulate menstrual cycles, reduce menstrual pain, and treat acne in some women.

Comprehensive Drug Guide

How Does Aubra Work?

  • Levonorgestrel (progestin) and ethinyl estradiol (estrogen) prevent ovulation by suppressing the release of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) from the pituitary gland.
  • It also thickens cervical mucus, making it difficult for sperm to enter the uterus, and thins the uterine lining, making it less likely for a fertilized egg to implant.


What is Aubra Used For?


Common Dosages

  • Tablets: 21 active tablets (0.1 mg levonorgestrel and 0.02 mg ethinyl estradiol) and 7 inactive placebo tablets in a 28-day cycle

Typical Dosing

  • Take one active tablet daily for 21 consecutive days, followed by one inactive tablet daily for 7 days. Begin a new pack after finishing the placebo tablets.
  • It is important to take the pill at the same time each day for maximum effectiveness.


Typical Dosing

FDA Approved Indications

  • Prevention of pregnancy
  • Regulation of menstrual cycles
  • Reduction of menstrual pain (dysmenorrhea)


Who Shouldn't Take Aubra?

  • History of blood clots, stroke, or heart attack
  • Liver disease or liver tumors
  • Uncontrolled high blood pressure
  • Known or suspected breast cancer or estrogen-dependent tumors
  • Smokers over the age of 35, as it increases the risk of serious cardiovascular events


Advice From The Pharmacist

  • Take Aubra at the same time every day to maintain its effectiveness. If you miss a dose, follow the instructions on what to do based on how many pills were missed.
  • If you miss one active pill, take it as soon as you remember and continue with the next pill at your regular time (this may mean taking two pills in one day).
  • Use a backup method of contraception, such as condoms, for the first 7 days of starting Aubra or if you miss multiple pills.
  • Aubra does not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs), so you may need to use additional protection if required.

  • Cancer risk: Aubra may increase the risk of breast cancer or cervical cancer in some women, especially those with a family history of breast cancer.


Interactions with Aubra
