Feiba VH Immuno and Marvelon 21

Feiba VH Immuno is used in people who have hemophilia and have developed antibodies to clotting factor medications.

Hemophilia, an inherited blood-clotting disorder, is often treated with medicines containing clotting factors that help control bleeding. When the body develops antibodies or "inhibitors" to the clotting factor, this treatment becomes less effective in preventing bleeding episodes. Feiba VH Immuno works by bypassing the effects of these inhibitors to improve blood clotting and decrease the risk of bleeding.

Feiba VH Immuno is used to treat or prevent bleeding episodes in people with hemophilia A or B who have developed inhibitors. Feiba VH Immuno is also used to control bleeding related to surgery in people with hemophilia and inhibitors. This medicine is not for treating bleeding episodes in people who do not have inhibitors.

Feiba VH Immuno may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.

Desogestrel and ethinyl estradiol combination is used to prevent pregnancy. It is a birth control pill that contains two types of hormones, desogestrel and ethinyl estradiol, and when taken properly, prevents pregnancy. It works by stopping a woman's egg from fully developing each month. The egg can no longer accept a sperm and fertilization (pregnancy) is prevented.

No contraceptive method is 100 percent effective. Birth control methods such as having surgery to become sterile or not having sex are more effective than birth control pills. Discuss your options for birth control with your doctor.

This medicine does not prevent HIV infection or other sexually transmitted diseases. It will not help as emergency contraception, such as after unprotected sexual contact.

This medicine is available only with your doctor's prescription.
