Hello dear. welcome to HealthCareMagic. thank you for asking in HCM. I have gone through your questions and understood your worries.
Famynor tablet contains
Ethinyl Estradiol (estrogen hormones) and Norgestrel (progestins hormones), uses as oral contraceptive. it works by inhibiting the ovulation.
many side effects can happen by using famynor. the most common (> 10%) are edema, weakness, amenorrhea (no
menstruation), bleeding, spotting, anorexia, migraine, weight gain. the minor such as: depression, dizziness, nervousness, somnolence,
abdominal pain, nausea vomiting, breast tenderness etc.
may I know does your wife your another medicine while using Famynor? she should contact to the doctor because some drugs may have interactions with famynor. if she's smoking, advise her not to smoke while use
hormonal contraceptive because it can increase the risk of cardiovascular adverse effects. famynor should be used with caution in someone who have diabetes,
hypertension, history of
breast cancer, renal/liver disease, and metabolic disorder.
if your wife still have psychological symptoms after using famynor, better you contact your treating doctor. because if
severe depression persists or develops, it's better to discontinue the using of famynor. please be aware of her.
I hope these can be helpful for you and your wife. If you have another problems, you can contact me anytime in HCM. I hope your wife can get better soon. send my greetings to her. Take care.
Regards,
dr. Asti Yuliadha
