Warnings

Do not take Eloine if allergic to its ingredients or if you have a history of thromboembolism, stroke, migraine with aura, or hormone-sensitive cancer. Not suitable during pregnancy. Caution is advised in women with liver or kidney disease, diabetes, or depression. Always consult a doctor before starting or switching contraceptive pills.

Eloine is a low-dose combined oral contraceptive pill that provides effective protection against pregnancy while supporting menstrual regularity and skin clarity. Each tablet contains ethinylestradiol, a synthetic oestrogen, and drospirenone, a synthetic progestogen with anti-androgenic properties. Eloine is often prescribed to women who experience hormonal sensitivity, mild acne, or mood-related symptoms around menstruation.

How It Works
Eloine works by suppressing ovulation—the release of an egg from the ovaries—while simultaneously thickening the cervical mucus to make it difficult for sperm to enter the uterus. The uterine lining is also modified to be less receptive to implantation. The combination of drospirenone and ethinylestradiol provides reliable hormonal regulation throughout the cycle, and the 24/4 regimen (24 active pills followed by 4 inactive ones) minimises hormonal fluctuations, which may benefit mood and physical symptoms associated with the menstrual cycle.

Why Choose Eloine
Eloine is formulated with a low dose of oestrogen and a unique progestogen that mimics natural progesterone. Drospirenone helps reduce water retention, bloating, and breakouts, offering added benefits beyond contraception. Its 28-day continuous pack supports consistent use and avoids missed pills caused by breaks in treatment. Eloine is suitable for women seeking a well-tolerated, modern pill with additional cycle and symptom control.

Important Note
Eloine must be taken consistently and as directed to maintain contraceptive effectiveness. Missing tablets or taking them irregularly increases the risk of pregnancy. It should not be used by women with a history of thrombosis, migraines with aura, or liver dysfunction. Smokers over the age of 35 should not use combined contraceptives. Eloine does not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs). It should only be used after a doctor has assessed individual risk factors.
