A member asked:
While being on the pill can i take diuretics? does it affect the efficacy of the pill?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends . . .: This question is best addressed by your doctor(s) & pharmacist(s) who prescribed your (birth control) pill & diuretic. We can't make blanket statements about pills & diuretics. We need to know which ones specifically. You need to tell both doc & pharmacist everything you're taking, prescription & otherwise. It's their jobs to look for interactions, etc before prescribing/dispensing to you.
