Is It Safe To Take Althea As Contraceptive Pill?
Hi! I am currently using Nordette as a contraceptive pill. I would like to switch to Althea since Ive been having skin problem with Nordette. Both has 21 pills, how will I switch? Last pill of Nordette was March 25, Should I take the first pill of Althea on April 1? 7days after I took the last pill of Nordette? Thank you!

Hello welcome to 'Ask A Doctor' service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advise.
You can switch to Nordette from Althea even though there is slight change in content. You can start Althea on April 1 (after a gap of one week).
Hope I have answered your question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
