Daysee is a combination drug that contains female hormones that prevent ovulation (the release of an egg from an ovary). Daysee also causes changes in your cervical mucus and uterine lining, making it harder for sperm to reach the uterus and harder for a fertilized egg to attach to the uterus.

Daysee is used as contraception to prevent pregnancy.

Daysee may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.

Ethchlorvynol is used to treat insomnia (trouble in sleeping). However, it has generally been replaced by other medicines for the treatment of insomnia. If ethchlorvynol is used regularly (for example, every day) to help produce sleep, it is usually not effective for more than 1 week.

Ethchlorvynol is available only with your doctor's prescription.
