Hi i have the nexplanon birth control will minocycline affect the nexplanon and make it not work as well?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: That antibiotic should not affect your Nexplanon at all. Nexplanon is a very effective form of contraception, but remember that it does not protect against sexually transmitted infections, so be sure to practice safe sex!
