Sequential birth control pills pulled after safety concerns
Washington reports new evidence that sequential oral contraceptives may harm women, prompting Mead Johnson, Ortho Pharmaceutical, and Syntex Laboratories to withdraw Oracon, Ortho Novum SQ, and Norguan from the market. About 5 to 10 percent of the 10 million U.S. users are affected. The drugs deliver estrogen first two weeks then add progestin in the third week, unlike combination pills that supply both hormones throughout.
