Syeda is the brand name for drospirenone/ethinyl estradiol and is available as an oral tablet.

Syeda is available as an oral tablet in a pack that contains 21 tablets with 3 mg drospirenone (DRSP) and 0.03 mg ethinyl estradiol and 7 placebo tablets.

Syeda is an estrogen/progestin combination that is used to prevent pregnancy.

Syeda is a combination oral contraceptive (COC) that contains 2 hormones: drospirenone (a progestin) and ethinyl estradiol (an estrogen). Both hormones work together to prevent pregnancy by:

• Suppressing ovulation (release of an egg from the ovary)
• Changing cervical mucus to block sperm movement
• Creating an unfriendly environment for the fertilized egg by changing the lining in the uterus (womb)

Syeda comes as a pre-packaged course (28 days) of medication. There are 21 active tablets and they each contain 3 mg drospirenone and 30 mcg ethinyl estradiol. There are 7 placebo tablets and they don’t contain any active medication. The typical dose is to take 1 active tablet by mouth daily for 21 days, followed by 1 placebo tablet daily for the remaining 7 days. The tablets must be taken in order as shown on the medication packaging.
