Primolut + dicynone : Primolut is a hormonal drug and should be gradually tapered down. Dicynone controls bleeding if it occurs. There is no known drug interaction between the two. Without further history, it is difficult to evaluate your question, but the two drugs are routinely used in combination, if that is what you are asking.
