Frequently asked questions

What is Liladros used for?+
Liladros is a combined oral contraceptive containing drospirenone and ethinylestradiol, prescribed to prevent pregnancy and to help regulate menstrual cycles in women of reproductive age.
How does drospirenone/ethinylestradiol work?+
Drospirenone suppresses the luteinizing hormone surge, preventing ovulation, while ethinylestradiol stabilizes the endometrial lining and thickens cervical mucus. Together they create conditions that inhibit fertilization and implantation.
What is the usual dose of Liladros?+
The dosage regimen is set by the prescribing healthcare professional; typically, Liladros is taken as one tablet daily at the same time for a 21‑day active cycle followed by a hormone‑free interval, but exact instructions must follow the prescriber’s order.
Is Liladros safe in pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Liladros is contraindicated during pregnancy because it is intended to prevent conception; if pregnancy occurs, the product should be discontinued. Limited data exist for breastfeeding, and the prescriber should weigh potential risks against benefits.
How do I order Liladros from GNH USA?+
Submit an enquiry on the 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.
