Does Intake Of A Single Diane Pill Cause Side Effects?

default
Posted on Mon, 24 Oct 2016
Question: Hi I was diagnosed with PCOS last month. My gynecologist prescribed Diane 35 to be taken every month. I took the first pill today and later on went online and read that this drug is banned in the U.S and Canada for its fatal side effects(blood clotting) and the drug's leaflet also says the same about increased risk in patients taking it for the first time. I am extremely scared. I will discontinue it and not intake it any further. But I took one pill. Will that also cause any side effects? Plus is there any other safe alternative available kindly tell me.
