What is Gemmily?
Gemmily contains a combination of female hormones to prevent ovulation, or the release of an egg. This medication can also cause changes to your cervical mucus or uterine lining. These changes make it more difficult for sperm and fertilized eggs to attach to your uterus. Gemmily can be used to prevent pregnancy. Gemmily can also be used to treat mild acne in women over 15 who have begun menstruating and wish to take birth control pills. There are several brands of ethinyl esteradiol and norethindrone. This leaflet does not list all brands. This medication guide does not list all possible uses of Gemmily.

How to take Gemmily?
Read all instructions or guides that came with your medication, and follow all directions as directed on its label. As soon as you start taking this medication, a backup method of birth control such as condoms with spermicide might be required to protect against pregnancy. Please follow your physician's advice regarding how best to use it. One pill per day should be taken, no more frequently than every 24 hours, starting a new package when your current ones run out. Failure to take one may increase your risk of pregnancy. Some birth control packages contain "reminder pills" to assist you with keeping to your regular cycle and your period will likely begin when starting these pills. If severe diarrhea or vomiting arises, use backup birth control. Your skin could have been bleeding. If this continues or worsens, consult a medical provider immediately. In some instances, however, major surgery or long-term bed rest could require temporarily discontinuing taking this medication. You should let any doctor or surgeon that treats you know you're using Gemmily. You will need to see your doctor regularly if you are taking birth control pills. Store away from heat and moisture at room temperature.
What happens if I miss the dose?
Reading all instructions or guides included with your medication is critical to success and can increase the risk of pregnancy significantly if any pill goes undetected. In such an instance, take two pills on the following day instead of just one per pack until all have been used up. If you missed two consecutive active pills during Weeks 1-2, take two pills every other day for two days and one pill daily thereafter until all packages have been used up. In addition, use another method of birth control for at least seven days following any missed pill(s). If you miss two active pills consecutively during Week 3, discard and begin another pack on Day 1 (ie Day 1 would have been Monday or Tuesday for those starting on Monday/Tuesday/etc) by taking one daily until Sunday when discard the remainder and start another package (eg Sunday for Monday starting).
If you miss three active pills consecutively during Weeks 1-3, discard all remaining capsules and start over on Day 4; or if starting Sunday instead of Day 1, continue taking one pill daily until Sunday; at that time discard what remains and begin fresh with another package. Missing two active pills may prevent your period. See your physician immediately if this has happened to you for two consecutive months as it could indicate pregnancy. If you forget to take a pill reminder, just throw it out and continue taking one reminder pill a day until your pack is empty.
What happens if I overdose?
Call the Poison Helpline on 1-800-222-1222 if experiencing poison-related symptoms and seek emergency medical help immediately.An overdose can cause nausea or bleeding.
What should be avoided?
Do not smoke while taking birth control pills, especially if you're older than 35. BBirth control pills do not protect against sexually transmissible diseases like HIV and AIDS. The only way to prevent these diseases is by using a condom.
