To prevent pregnancy, always take Logynon as described below. Check with your doctor or family planning nurse if you are not sure. Take Logynon every day for 21 days Logynon comes in strips of 21 pills (6 light brown, 5 white and 10 ochre-coloured tablets), each marked with a day of the week. Take your pill at the same time every day. Start by taking pill number 1 and mark that day of the week under the heading I took my first pill on by piercing the small unnumbered foil disc. This will remind you on which day you started taking the course of pills. Follow the direction of the arrows on the strip. Take one pill each day, until you have finished all 21 pills. Swallow each pill whole, with water if necessary. Do not chew the pill.
Then have seven pill-free days. After you have taken all 21 pills in the strip, you have seven days when you take no pills. So if you take the last pill of one pack on a Friday, you will take the first pill of your next pack on the Saturday of the following week. Within a few days of taking the last pill from the strip, you should have a withdrawal bleed like a period. This bleed may not have finished when it is time to start your next strip of pills. You do not need to use extra contraception during these seven pill-free days as long as you have taken your pills correctly and start the next strip of pills on time.
Then start your next strip-Start taking your next strip of Logynon after the seven pill free days even if you are still bleeding. Always start the new strip on time. As long as you take Logynon correctly, you will always start each new strip on the same day of the week.
