A member asked:
With tri-sprintec birth control, is it a bad idea to take other types of medication?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not necessrily: Usually birth control pills do not interact with other types of medications. But people on anti-seizure medications, antibiotics, and certain other drugs can effect how well the birth control pill works. You should discuss the interactions of medications with your personal physician.
