Dienogest Dienogest Erythromycin
ModerateErythromycin can raise the amount of Dienogest in your blood. It does this by slowing down the liver enzyme (CYP3A4) that normally breaks Dienogest down. With more of the hormone in your body, you are more likely to get its side effects. Tell your doctor or pharmacist that you are taking both medicines. If you are prescribed erythromycin while on Dienogest, ask whether anything needs to change.
These medicines are often taken together with some care. Your doctor may change a dose, space them apart or check on you more often. Make sure your doctor and pharmacist know you take both.
