A member asked:

Is it safe to take a liquid medication to fall sleep faster while on the xulane patch?

Specializes in Obstetrics and Gynecology

What medication?: I guess the answer depends on what liquid sleep medication you are referring to. Typicaly sleep medications are not prescribed to 17 year olds. Let the doctor prescribing the medication know you are on the Xulane birth control patch. I am not aware of any that interact with it.
