CONTRACEPTIVES AND FELBAMATE

Felbamate increased the clearance of gestodene from a combined oral contraceptive in one study, but ovulation remained suppressed.
What this change means in terms of the reliability of the hormonal contraceptive is not known, but some reduction in its efficacy might be expected. If both drugs are used tell patients to report any changes in bleeding.
