Frequently asked questions

What is Keriette Diario used for?+
Keriette Diario is a combined oral contraceptive indicated for the prevention of pregnancy in women of reproductive age. By delivering a fixed dose of ethinylestradiol and levonorgestrel, it provides reliable birth control when taken as prescribed.
How does Ethinylestradiol / Levonorgestrel work?+
The estrogen component (ethinylestradiol) and the progestin (levonorgestrel) work together to suppress the hypothalamic‑pituitary‑ovarian axis, preventing the luteinizing hormone surge that triggers ovulation. They also thicken cervical mucus and alter the endometrium, creating an environment less favorable for sperm and implantation.

The dosing regimen for Keriette Diario is determined by the prescribing healthcare professional. Typically, the product is taken as one tablet daily at the same time each day, but the exact schedule and any missed‑dose instructions are provided by the prescriber.
Is Keriette Diario safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
