A member asked:
Will my perle birth control be less effective if im also taking ketoconazole 200mg tablets? or vice versa.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
May be ...: Hormonal birth control (birth control pills) may not work as well while you are using ketoconazole. To prevent pregnancy, use an extra form of birth control (eg, condoms). Both medications are metabolized through the liver.
