How do you use NuvaRing
?
(etongestrel/ethinylestradiol)

Each NuvaRing is intended for one use only. To use, you simply remove from the packet and insert the flexible ring into your vagina and leave for exactly 3 weeks before removing. You then wait 1 week before inserting a new ring.
The ring should be inserted and removed at the same time and day, so if you inserted NuvaRing on a Sunday night at 10 pm, you should remove the ring 3 weeks later on a Sunday night at 10 pm and then insert a new ring 1 week after that (i.e. on the next Sunday at 10 pm).
Adverse events should be reported. Reporting forms and information can be found at www.yellowcard.gov.uk.
Adverse events should also be reported to MSD Drug Safety Department on 01707 363773
