Frequently asked questions

What is Levomin 30 used for?+
Levomin 30 is a combined oral contraceptive containing ethynylestradiol and levonorgestrel. It is prescribed to prevent pregnancy in women of reproductive age and may also be used to regulate menstrual cycles or treat moderate acne when indicated by a healthcare professional.
How does ethynylestradiol / levonorgestrel work?+
The estrogen component (ethynylestradiol) and the progestogen (levonorgestrel) act on the hypothalamic‑pituitary‑ovarian axis, suppressing luteinizing hormone and follicle‑stimulating hormone release. This blocks ovulation, thickens cervical mucus, and alters the endometrium, creating conditions that prevent fertilisation and implantation.
What is the usual dose of Levomin 30?+
The dosing regimen for Levomin 30 is determined by the prescribing clinician. Typically, it is taken once daily at the same time for a 21‑day active phase followed by a hormone‑free interval, but the exact schedule should follow the prescriber’s instructions.
Is Levomin 30 safe to use during pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Levomin 30 is intended for use only when a woman is not pregnant. If pregnancy occurs, the product should be discontinued and medical advice sought. During breastfeeding, combined oral contraceptives are generally considered compatible, but clinicians may prefer progestogen‑only options for certain situations.
How do I order Levomin 30 from GNH USA?+
To place an order, submit an enquiry on the Levomin 30 product page at gnh-usa.com, specifying the required quantity. GNH USA works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and any necessary import documentation.
How does Levomin 30 compare with other combined oral contraceptives?+
Levomin 30 contains the standard dose of ethynylestradiol combined with levonorgestrel, a widely used progestogen. Compared with formulations that use newer progestins, it offers a well‑characterised efficacy and safety profile, but individual tolerability may vary, making clinician‑guided selection important.
What are the storage and handling requirements for Levomin 30?+
Levomin 30 tablets should be stored at room temperature, below 25 °C, in their original blister pack. Protect them from excess moisture, direct sunlight and heat to maintain potency throughout the shelf life.
How is Levomin 30 administered?+
Levomin 30 is taken orally, usually as a single tablet each day at the same time. Patients should follow the prescribed cycle, typically 21 consecutive active tablets followed by a hormone‑free interval, unless otherwise directed by their healthcare provider.
What are the most serious risks associated with Levomin 30?+
Serious risks include venous thromboembolism, stroke, myocardial infarction, and severe hypertension, particularly in smokers over 35 or women with pre‑existing cardiovascular conditions. Prompt medical attention is required if symptoms such as chest pain, sudden shortness of breath, severe headache, or leg swelling occur.
Who should not use Levomin 30?+
Levomin 30 is contraindicated in women who are pregnant, have a history of thromboembolic disorders, uncontrolled hypertension, active liver disease, known or suspected breast cancer, or who are smokers aged 35 years or older. A thorough medical assessment is essential before initiation.
