Norethisterone 350mcg - Dosage and How to Use

How should Norethisterone 350mcg be used?

Noriday® should be taken as prescribed by your doctor. It is usually started as one of the following:

Day 1 of menstrual cycle (pregnancy should be ruled out before starting the medication).
Immediately after miscarriage or abortion
Day 21 after childbirth whether you are breastfeeding or not

Noriday^® is administered orally as one tablet daily without any break, taken preferably at the same each day, after food. Tablets must be taken continuously without regard to menstrual bleeding. When a pack is finished, the next one should be started without interruption.

A reliable supplementary non-hormonal contraceptive method e.g. condoms is recommended for the first seven days the first time you start taking Noriday^®.

What should I do if I miss a dose?

If a dose is missed, the missed tablet should be taken as soon as it is remembered. The next tablet should be taken at the usual time, even if that means taking two tablets in one day.

When Noriday^® is taken 3 or more hours late, a reliable supplementary non-hormonal contraceptive method e.g. condoms, should be used for the next 7 days.
