Hi,
It is not advisable to take these two medications together. Taking Ginette-35 while on Encorate chrono-200 can cause loss of seizure control or symptoms such as tremors, poor muscle coordination, increased seizures, and changes in behavior.
It can also result in increased side effects of Cyproterone acetate one of the active drug present in Ginette-35.
Consult your doctor for a dose adjustment or special tests to safely take both medications.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
