A member asked:

Would taking butalbital cause yasmin (drospirenone and ethinyl estradiol) not to work properly?

Dr. Ralph Morgan Lewis answered

Specializes in Family Medicine

Yes: Butalbital & yasmin (drospirenone and ethinyl estradiol) interact such that you may lose seizure control as well as effective contraception; therefore, use an alternate form of birth control or ask your doc to prescribe something other than butalbital, .
