Comprehensive Drug Guide
How Does Jinteli Work?
- Prevention of ovulation: The hormones in Jinteli inhibit the release of eggs from the ovaries.
- Thickening of cervical mucus: This makes it more difficult for sperm to enter the uterus.
- Alteration of the uterine lining: The lining becomes less suitable for implantation, thus reducing the likelihood of pregnancy.
Common Dosages
- 21 active pills: Each containing 3 mg of drospirenone and 0.02 mg of ethinyl estradiol.
- 7 inactive pills: Taken during the last week to allow for a withdrawal bleed.
Typical Dosing
- For contraception: Take 1 active pill daily for 21 consecutive days, followed by 1 inactive pill daily for the next 7 days. A withdrawal bleed typically occurs during this time.
Typical Dosing
FDA Approved Indications
- Prevention of pregnancy
- Management of premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD)
- Regulation of menstrual cycles
Who Shouldn't Take Jinteli?
- Known hypersensitivity to ethinyl estradiol, drospirenone, or any components of the formulation.
- History of blood clots, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), or pulmonary embolism (PE).
- Uncontrolled high blood pressure or certain types of cancers (e.g., breast cancer).
- Liver disease or liver tumors.
Advice From The Pharmacist
- Take Jinteli at the same time every day to ensure maximum effectiveness.
- If you miss a pill, follow the instructions in the package insert or contact your healthcare provider for guidance.
- Jinteli does not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs); use condoms to reduce the risk of STIs.
- Some women may experience spotting or breakthrough bleeding during the first few months of use, which typically resolves as the body adjusts to the hormones.
