Resumo
Mineral oil is a non-absorbable lipophilic laxative that can retain fat-soluble drugs in the intestinal lumen. Oral ethinylestradiol absorption could theoretically be reduced, which might lower contraceptive efficacy with frequent use.
O que esta interação significa em palavras simples
Ethinylestradiol 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.
Por que acontece
Mineral oil may dissolve lipophilic estrogen in the gut lumen and accelerate transit, reducing absorption.
O que fazer
Avoid routine mineral oil use in women taking oral ethinylestradiol products; if needed, give the estrogen at least 2 hours before mineral oil.
