Cerazette Desogestrel 75mcg Mini-Pill

Buy Cerazette Desogestrel 75mcg Mini-Pill In USA Online

What is Cerazette (desogestrel)?

Cerazette is a progestogen-only pill (POP), also known as a mini-pill, which contains 75mcg of desogestrel. Cerazette is a brand of desogestrel from MSD, however, cheaper generic formulations of desogestrel are available to buy online from our pharmacy.

For women who cannot take combined contraceptive pills, the mini-pill can be a suitable alternative. Desogestrel works by mimicking a natural female hormone in the body called progesterone.

Desogestrel prevents the female body from ovulating (releasing an egg from the ovaries) which subsequently prevents pregnancy.

How to take Cerazette safely?

Desogestrel 7mcg is not suitable for every woman. We strongly urge you to give as much information to our UK registered prescriber about medications you are taking which could conflict with Cerazette and understand the side effects associated with POPs.

Do not take Cerazette if you are allergic to desogestrel or any of the other ingredients listed within the patient information leaflet supplied with this medicine.

You should talk to your GP or our specialist before you buy desogestrel if:
