Does Bentelan weaken the effect of Belara contraceptive pills?

Hello, I got an acute allergic reaction on my eyes while on holiday in Italy. I started taking Bentelan 1 mg. At the same time I take Belara contraceptive pills, but I currently have a withdrawal break (3 day break). Does Bentelan reduce the effect of hormonal contraception? Should I use an additional method of contraception?

Betamethasone (the active substance in Bentelan) does not affect the effectiveness of birth control pills, but the oestrogen they contain may increase the effects of this medicine and increase the risk of side effects. Therefore, the doctor who prescribed Bentelan should be informed that you are using contraception in order to choose the right dosage. If you experience any alarming symptoms, contact your doctor - in this situation, you may need to modify the dosage of the drug.
