Is a brand of birth control the same in different countries?!
Question: Is a brand of birth control the same in different countries.?
I'm Canadian and have been on Triquilar for several years and never had a problem with it. However, I'm now living in Korea and my supply ran out so I asked the pharacist if they had my brand here. They did, although it was in a different looking pkg., but figured that wouldn't matter. However, about 1-3 hours after taking these new pills i feel light-headed, dizzy, and sometimes experience nausea. I don't understand how the same brand would affect me like this. Is it possible that they're slightly different in the two countries.? also, will this pass, or should I have my mom send me a 9 month supply from Canada to hold me over until I go home.? I can't take this feeling much longer, it's interupting my workout and I have no energy at night. It only lasts for an hour or two, but still, it sucks.Health Question & Answer
