Good morning, I was taking Microgynon 21 tablets and the doctor prescribed me a new Cyprodiol. After finishing the old contraceptive drug, I took a normal 7-day break and took the new drug as I took the old one after the break. Is this correct? I read the leaflet later and doubted.

According to the Summary of Product Characteristics of Cyprodiol, the use of the drug can be started after taking the last tablet with the active substance of the previous agent or no later than the day following the 7-day break. 'In the case of previous use of combined hormonal agents, the use of Cyprodiol shall be started the day after taking the last tablet containing the active substances of the previously used agent. If your usual product also contains placebo tablets, Cyprodiol is started the day after the last hormone tablet. Cyprodiol can be started later, but no later than the day on which you should take your usual tablet after a 7-day break (or the day after the last placebo tablet of the previous product)."
