YASMIN
USES: Yasmin is used
to prevent pregnancy or to regulate your menstrual cycle.
Certain brands of birth control pills may be used for
treating acne or as a "morning after" pill for emergency
contraception. Consult your doctor or pharmacist. Use of
Yasmin does not protect you or your partner against sexually
transmitted diseases (e.g., HIV, gonorrhea).
HOW TO USE YASMIN: Take Yasmin with food or

take Yasmin at the same time each day. This may help you to
remember to take it. Learn proper use of your particular
brand of medication. Follow your dosing schedule carefully.
Be sure to ask your doctor or pharmacist if you have any
questions. Use a supplemental form of birth control during
the first week of taking Yasmin since it takes a while to be
effective. Follow your doctor's directions exactly if this
drug is being used as a "morning after" pill.

headache, lightheadedness, stomach upset, bloating, or
nausea. If these effects persist or worsen, contact your

weakness or tingling in the arms or legs, yellowing of the

effects. See patient package insert for more information.
