Comedications within the Contraceptive and HRT class have been revised and the listing expanded to include various routes of administration and indications. The new listing now includes different hormonal contraceptive methods such as combined oral contraceptives (COC), progestogen only pills (POP), implants, vaginal rings, intra-uterine devices (IUD), patches and depot injections.
All interactions within this class have also been reassessed using the new interaction classification system which sees interactions likely to be of weak intensity and not requiring additional action or monitoring, or a dosage adjustment coded as “yellow” (click here for further details about this new classification).
Updated treatment selectors for Contraceptives and HRT are available in the Treatment Selector section of the website.
