Why is Diane 35 prescribed?

Ethinyl estradiol and Cyproterone (Diane 35) is prescribed for the treatment of skin conditions such as acne associated with seborrhea (oily skin) and mild hirsutism (excessive hair growth) in women. It can also be used as an oral contraceptive to prevent pregnancy.

What does it do?

Acne is a condition where the hair follicles on your skin become blocked with dirt, oil, and dead skin cells causing pimples, whiteheads, and blackheads. Diane 35 contains two medications Ethinyl estradiol and Cyproterone. Ethinyl estradiol belongs to a drug class called estrogens and works by reducing the levels of androgens (male hormone) in the blood. Cyproterone belongs to a drug class called anti-androgens and it works by blocking the production of androgens.

How should I take it?

Diane 35 and its generic equivalents are currently available in 0.35/2mg tablets. Each tablet should be taken as a whole (do not split) by mouth, with or without food.

The dosage strength depends on every patient’s condition and the doctor’s prescription. It is imperative that you do not self-medicate and only use this drug after consulting with your doctor or pharmacist to determine the best dosage and dosing schedule for the treatment of your condition.

What if I missed a dose?

The desired effects of prescribed medications will only be achieved if taken properly. As much as possible, strictly follow your doctor’s prescribed dosing schedule. However, if you miss a dose, you may need to follow special instructions depending on which tablet and how much you missed. Consult your doctor or pharmacist if you have any concerns regarding the instructions.

What are the special precautions before taking Diane 35?
