LPRI-424 Birth Control Pill Study
The Women’s Health Research Unit is conducting a study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a new investigational birth control pill, LPRI-424, at preventing pregnancy.
LPRI-424is a combined birth control pill that contains two types of hormones: progestin and estrogen. This birth control pill has a lower dose of estrogen than other birth control pills currently available. This is expected to reduce the number and/or intensity of side effects. LPRI-424 is designed as an extended-release tablet. Extended-release drugs release the active ingredients slowly and work for a longer time. This helps to reduce daily changes of hormone levels in the blood.
