Do Oseltamivir, Paracetamol, Vitamin C 1000 reduce the effectiveness of single-component contraceptive pills or only combined contraceptives?
Good morning, I have been taking limetic tablets for over a week. Unfortunately, 3 days ago I got sick with flu and the doctor assigned me to take oseltamivir, paracetamol, vitamin c 1000. Do these substances reduce the effectiveness of single-component contraceptive pills or only combined contraceptives?

Of the drugs you mentioned, paracetamol taken in significant doses may reduce the effectiveness of Limetic tablets. The summary of product characteristics of oseltamivir does not indicate the possibility of interaction with hormonal contraception, while the potential effect of vitamin C on the contraceptive pill concerns combined pills (such warnings are given by manufacturers of some combination preparations).
