Sintesi

Oral mineral oil may dissolve fat-soluble substances in the gut and reduce absorption of lipophilic steroid hormones. In theory this could lower contraceptive hormone exposure, though clinical significance is uncertain with occasional use.

Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici

Ethinyl estradiol-norgestimate and Mineral oil have a small, usually unimportant interaction. Most people can take both; the pharmacist may still mention it so that any unexpected effect is recognised.

Ethinyl estradiol-norgestimate belongs to Endocrine; Mineral oil belongs to Gastrointestinal Tract.

Livello di evidenza: Low

Perché avviene

Mineral oil acts as a lipid solvent in the intestinal lumen, which may reduce absorption of lipophilic drugs.

Cosa fare

Avoid regular use of mineral oil and take the contraceptive at least 2 hours before or after any dose. Counsel the patient to use backup contraception if prolonged diarrhea or heavy laxative use occurs.
