Contraceptives: decreased contraceptive efficacy and increased breakthrough bleeding, especially at doses greater than 200 mg per day ( 7.4 )

Contraceptives The possibility of decreased contraceptive efficacy and increased breakthrough bleeding may occur in patients taking contraceptive products with topiramate extended-release.

Patients taking estrogen-containing or progestin-only contraceptives should be asked to report any change in their bleeding patterns.

Contraceptive efficacy can be decreased even in the absence of breakthrough bleeding [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] .

Counsel patients to use a back-up or alternative method of contraception when enzyme inducers are used with COCs.

Counsel women to use an alternative method of contraception or a back-up method when enzyme inducers are used with COCs, and to continue back-up contraception for 28 days after discontinuing the enzyme inducer to ensure contraceptive reliability.

In vitro , EE is a reversible inhibitor of CYP2C19, CYP1A1 and CYP1A2 as well as a mechanism-based inhibitor of CYP3A4/5, CYP2C8, and CYP2J2.

These results demonstrate that DRSP did not inhibit CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 in vivo .
