What is Cyred EQ?
Cyred EQ is a birth control medication that contains feminine hormones that block the ovulation process (the release of eggs from the ovary). Cyred EQ causes changes to your cervical mucus and uterine lining, making it difficult for sperm to enter the uterus as well as for fertilized eggs to attach to your uterus.
CyredEQ can be used to avoid pregnancy. There are several varieties of this medicine on the market. There aren't all brands included in this leaflet.
Cyred EQ could also be used for other purposes that are not covered in this guideline.

How to take birth control pills?
Follow the instructions on the prescription label and read the medication guide or instructions sheets. Make sure you use the medicine precisely as directed. The beginning pill occurs on the very first day of your cycle, or on the first Sunday following your period. You might need to take backup birth control, like condoms or fertilizer, before you begin using this medication. Follow the directions of your doctor.
Each day, take one pill for at least 24 hours between. When the pills have run out, start a fresh pack the next day. You could become pregnant if you take a pill every day. Make sure you refill your prescription before you run out of pills completely. Certain birth control kits contain seven "reminder" pills to keep you on the same cycle. The period usually begins when you're using these pills to remind you. There is a possibility of bleeding that has exploded. Contact your doctor if it persists or is extremely heavy. Make sure you have a backup birth control pill if you're sick and suffering from severe vomiting.
Any surgeon or doctor who sees you must be aware that you're taking birth control medications. When you are taking birth medication to control your birth, you will have to visit your doctor frequently. Keep it at room temperature, far from heat and moisture.
What happens if I miss the dose?
Follow the instructions on the prescription label and go through all medication guides or instructions. The absence of medication increases your chances of becoming pregnant.
If you don't remember taking one active pill, you should take two pills the next day you recall. Then, take one pill a day throughout the remainder of the package. If you do not take two active pills in succession during weeks 1 and 2, then take two pills a day for a total of two days. Take one pill a day for the remainder of the week. You should use backup birth control for a minimum of 7 days after the missing pills. If you fail to take two active pills within Week 3, you can throw out the remainder of your pack and begin another pack on the same day if you're a Day 1 starter. If you're a Sunday-based starter, you should continue taking a pill each day up to Sunday. When you are done, take away the remainder of the pack and begin a new pack the following day.
If you do not take three active pills consecutively in weeks 1, 2 or 3, discard the remainder of your pack and start a fresh pack the next day if you're one of the day 1 starters. If you're a Sunday-based starter, you should continue taking a pill each day through Sunday. On Sunday, toss away the remainder of the pack and start a fresh pack for the day. If you skip at least two pills in a row, then you cannot experience a period for the rest of the month. If you don't have the period for more than two months in a row, contact your doctor, as you could possibly be expecting. If you do not remember to take a reminder pill, throw it out and take a daily reminder pill until you have a full pack.
What happens if I overdose?
Get medical attention immediately, or contact us for help at the Poison Help Line at 1-800-222-1222. The symptoms of an overdose can include vomiting, nausea, and vaginal bleeding.
What should be avoided?
Avoid smoking when you are taking birth control medication, especially if you are over 35 years old.
Birth control pills do make it impossible to stop your illness from spreading. Don't engage in sexual activity that is not protected or share toothbrushes or razors. Discuss with your doctor ways to avoid HIV transmission during sexual contact.
