Started Taking Gynera. Was On Logest. Why Red Dots On Body?

Hi, i just started taking Gynera, before i was taking Logest, but as i couldn’t find Logest in Dubai, i searched for contraceptives with the same hormonal dose. Gynera seemed to be like Logest. No i am taking the pills for the first week, and i am getting some red dots on my body, looks like pimples , and on my face really hearting pimples. What to do? Please anyone advice, as i don’t have the possibility to go to a doctor.

Hello,
Thanks for the query,

You have developed an allergic reaction to gynera,

Any change in brand of same drug can also cause allergy.

Apply a mild steroid lotion like desonide,

Also take an antihistamine tablet.

This will give you some relief.

Try stopping the medication for few days and try for a different brand.

Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.

Let me know if you have any other doubt.
