OCP : Can decreased efficacy of the ocp. Also can decrease efficacy of seizure controlled by the butalbital. Talk to your doctor about this.

Yes: Clarify whether you should be taking it and how to come off it if needed.

Reduced efficacy: Butalbital will reduce the efficacy of Implanon so an additional method of contraception is recommended. Your doctor can help you make this choice.
