I'm taking Famila 28F which should be taken in a pattern but I have taken it randomly. Now i'm feeling nauseous,dizziness and headache. What to do now?
Hello. Good evening. May I please inquire how many tablets you took? And for how long have you been taking them at random intervals?
what is the patren you follow
Please consult your doctor who prescribed this medicine.
First of all get your pregnancy test done. and then call for an appointment, either online or in person.
If possible, stop it for now and start again on the 1st day of the cycle, and then do not miss any single tablet daily after dinner. for the existing symptoms, these wil vanish away in the meantime or u can take symptomatic treatment like panadol. Read leaflet attached carefully for effects and side effects. if not getting better, consult ur gynecologist. Thank you
What pattern you are following? You need to take daily 1 tablet.Get your blood pressure checked
for what purpose u r taking this conterceptive pill? If fr period distubence, then stop it & start again fm 1st day of cycle . If to avoid pregnancy (if married) then continue but with strict timing(once a day in morning same time daily). Hormones do make u feel sick.Take tab Navidoxine, 1 daily at night fr few days. u can consult online if not satisfied.

Contraceptives can not be taken randomly. Track your menstrual cycle and start accordingly. As for the nausea and headache, treat symptomatically, these are side effects of taking the drug. Eat well and sleep well.
Plz tell us about the cause for which you are taking this medicine? Are you married? What is your weight? How many pills you have missed ? Give complete information about your cycle when you started and which dose you missed ? Get your blood pressure checked . If you are married than do pregnancy test as well take adequate amount of water and if nausea persist take tab Navidoxine 25 mg . This much you can do on your own or just simply get an appointment online .
plz.consult gynaecologist

Should take daily, Now you should start new pack and take antiemetic (Tab Onset) as well for nausea etc.
you should take it on proper time and with regularity..if u are having headace and dizziness u can take gravinate and panadol..
kindly take it regularly and timely according to. drs advice and if theere is severe side effects stop it and consult for online appointment and also take motelium v tablet nd pandol extend for ur side effects... if it still persists kindly book an online appointment
Firstly do your pregnancy test if you are married then if negative start taking this medicine regularly as contraceptive pills cannot be taken randomly and for symptoms start tab gravinate and tab panadol.
first of all,need a detailed history and some relevant question,ocps shouldn't take. randomly,it has to be taken regularly,details required that how many days you missed the pills,you need to evaluate youself for pregnancy too,meanwhile you can take tablet navidoxine ,tablet stemetil and tablet Panadol thrice aday . JAzaKILLAH khr
stop taking Famila 28F for a week. Get your blood pressure checked regularly. if low take ORS and cap.omeprazole 20mg and tab.onset twice daily.
When your physical symptoms disappear than start taking your medication as required in a set pattern.
get your blood pressure checked.take cap dexxoo 60mg,tab itopride 150mg od,tab onset bd,when symptoms get sttled then start famila according to prescribed schedule but dintvtake randomly
Hello, Famila should be taken as recommended regularly. If taken randomly it does not have complete effect.
Nausea , diziness and headache can be due to many other causes.
Before recommending any medicine I would like to have a detailed history.
Yes it can happen
Famila has to be taken regularly but taken once cannot cause any major side effects.. check you bp first and for nausea take tab gravinate and cap risek 20 mg before meal .. you can take tab panadol for headaches . Increase your fluids intake
How randomly did you take Famila? Did you take it at different time each day or did you skip doses??
First of all get your BP checked. nausea, dizziness and headaches are common side effects of OCPs.
Take Tab Stemetil 1+1 for 2 days to settle the symptoms.
afterwards take Familia properly on fixed time daily to minimize side effects.
Days written on pack are for reminder. these have nothing to do with drug dosage or formulation. don't worry if you have taken randomly. side effects you have mentioned are common with OCPs. if severe consult a doctor
Start taking it according to pattern
Follow the pattern given on the table (mon,tue,wed..) tablet gravinate 50mg 1 at night for nause or vomiting related to it( as it’s sleepy , take rest after this) and tablet stematil 1 daily in day tkme whenever needed! Use capsule omega 20mg before breakfast for 2 weeks!
first of all u must take these tablets on regular bases ... as prescribe by ur doc and if it's difficult to take daily so change your family planing method like go for injectable or long term method which is best family planning method go with copper T.... nd consult with me online as iknw About your proper history nd evaluation ...thanx
Why you are taking medicine without a proper prescription?? It is harmful.
Describe the purpose of taking tablets. Do your pregnancy test .
How many tablets have you missed ?
What's your cycle?
If pregnancy test negative then take take tablets on daily basis at same time .
Follow pattern strictly.
Go for another family planning method
You should consult your primary doctor Gynecologist for this query....
since how long are you taking the medication
Don't worry !
