Additional contraception for Damara and antibiotics?

September 4, 2015 | 15,00 EUR | answered by Dr. med. Frauke Gehring

Take Damara for contraception. Today I was prescribed the antibiotic Monuril 3000mg for a bladder infection. Do I need to use additional contraception and if so, for how long?

Dr. med. Frauke Gehring

Good day,

Monuril (Fosfomycin) is a substance that is not very closely related to other antibiotics. It does not affect the effectiveness of the pill, so you do not need to use additional contraception.

Get well soon!

Sincerely, Dr. Höllering
