Can Co-cyprindol Cause Bloating And Gas Formation?

I have been taking co-cyprindol for my acne and for use as a contraceptive. However I appear to have constant bloating and a lot of gas, could this be the cause or a side effect of taking these? If so I have a nightmare with contraceptives and can t seem to find one that will agree.

Hi,

Nausea,abdominal pain or bloating can occur with hormonal contraceptives. Avoid foods that cause bloating like lentils, peas and beans. Eating smaller portions of meals, and regular exercise can help. Drugs that reduce bloating like simethicone can also be used thrice a day after meals.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
