Out of Stock Triphasil-28

[Skittlesgal35]

Elephant -

I took ortho-tricyclen before I was put on Triphasil and it made me very nauseas, I only took maybe a weeks worth and had to stop, the nausea was overwhelming. I can take a little nausea but this was unbelievable.

I called 3 different pharmacies and they told me that if the Triphasil gave me no side effects then the generic should not either, I may just give the Trivora a try, is the only side effect you are having from the Trivora nausea? Is there any other bad side effects?

There is also another generic of Triphasil called Tri-Levlen 28, but not sure about their side effects. Lets keep our fingers crossed that the Triphasil comes back.

Skittlesgal,

Yes, nausea was the only side effect that I noticed. But, it was terrible.

I could tolerate it during the day, but about 7 – 8 o’clock at night it would hit and was awful. I tried taking it earlier than I usually would, and then later than I usually would, with food etc..

Nothing seemed to help, except taking a Tylenol PM and trying to go to sleep.

The prescription the doctor gave me is for Ortho Cyclen (not tricyclen). I think I will try the APRI next.

Yes, I would love to hear that Triphasil is back on the market.

HI elephant,

how are you feeling now on the Trivora? I know its been a few weeks, did the nausea calm down some? Did you try eating some saltine crackers for the nausea or some pretzels sometimes it helps me when i feel nauseaus.

I am waiting for my period to come and i will be starting on the trivora myself, I just can't wait to be back on something,, i am really suffering now with horrible PMS.

I will let you know about my side effects on it , but hopefully i will have none!!!!!!

Please read carefully, many oral contraceptives are on the list and other basic medications as well.

The "out-of-stock" word from your pharmacy is true, however the reasons behind it are more intense & concerning than we were informed of. Even certain physicians have not been informed.
