Could Feeling More Sleepy Be The Side Effect Of Taking Femilon Oral Contraceptive?
Hi, My doctor advised me to take Femilon as oral contraceptive. I started on it from Sunday only, but the medicine is making me very sleepy through the day and night. Is this possible? And if yes, then do I need to change my medicine or it will just take some time for my body to get used to it?

Familon is not known to cause sleepyness, but any drug can cause untoward side effect. I think you should not stop it continue it till you get habituated to it.
