A member asked:

Can taking cefprozil and birth control cause pregnancy? if so, how high is the risk?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Low: I found some information that is copied as a link here that says that the risk is very low and that new evidence does not support the tie between antibiotics and increased risk of pregnancy except for on antibiotic- and not the one your are on :) http://www.drugs.com/article/antibiotics-and-birth-control.html
