Is Reclipsen The Same As Orthocept?

I am currently on Orthocept but when I went to get a refill the other day they told me that it is now made by a different manufacturer and is now called Reclipsen. Are these the exact same thing? I really like the pill Orthocept so I do not want to have to adjust to something new with different side effects.

Hello,
There is absolutely nothing to worry because both are same.
Both contain DESOGESTREL and ETHINYLESTRADIOL and are known as third generation birth control pills which cause minimum weight gain,breast tenderness and migraine.
Thanks
