Does Tetralysal Reduce Effectivenss Of Microgynon Contraceptive Pill?

I take Microgynon Contraceptive pill and have just been precribed Tetralysal . As a precaution the GP advised that I use extra precautions for the next 4 weeks, what I want to check is that after this 4 weeks, will it affect the contraceptive properties or do I have to still use extra protection thanks
