Solia
Main Ingredients: Estrogen (low dose) + Progestin (high dose)
Solia is used to prevent pregnancy, regulate menstrual periods as well
as in the treatment of acne in women 15 and older.
Solia is a synthetic
form of female sex hormones produced naturally in the body, progestin, and
estrogen.
Solia curbs the pituitary glands activity thus hindering
ovulation; alter the mucus at the cervix opening to prevent sperm from
entering, and their variable levels play a vital role in fertility in
women.
Solia for acne is taken just as it would be for contraception.
Contraceptive drugs like Solia are associated with risks. These risks increase in women over age 35, smokers and who have hypertension.
SOLIA WARNING
Avoid using contraceptives including Solia if you are or might be
pregnant.
Avoid smoking as it enhances the risk of heart-related side effects in
women who use oral contraceptives like Solia. The risk is even greater in
women over 35.
Avoid using Solia if you have had an allergic reaction to any oral
contraceptives.
Avoid Solia if you are a migraine sufferer.
Avoid taking Solia if you or someone in your family has ever had
breast cancer or cancer of the reproductive system or liver problems.
Avoid Solia if you have or ever had a stroke, heart disease, liver
