How do ethinylestradiol and levonorgestrel work?+

Together they thicken cervical mucus and alter the uterine lining, creating multiple barriers to fertilisation and implantation.

The dosing regimen for Levorichter 30 is determined by the prescribing healthcare professional. Typically, one tablet is taken orally each day at the same time, but the exact schedule and duration are set by the prescriber based on individual patient needs.
Is Levorichter 30 safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
