Title: Pill versus patch ...... Please help!!!
Post by: Jmb on October 30, 2014, 12:23:47 PM
I've been on femoston Conti 1mg /5mg for 3months and apart from some nausea it's been good until I came out in a full body rash last week mainly bottom half. The GP has switched me to femoston conti patches weekly. I've just finished my first weekly patch and feel very foggy brained. The rash is gone virtually so sadly it must have been the pill. My doctor has said see how the patches go. This morning I nearly rang her because I feel so out of it. But I guess one week isn't very long. Also getting hold of these patches is rather difficult. I don't know if it's a manufacturing supply problem or popularity!
Please help!

Was it the medication or the coating on the pill?
