Yaz Danger Signs

The Food & Drug Administration, as well as the US Dept of HHS (Health & Human Services) is in the process of undergoing reviews of birth control drugs containing drospirenone. The purpose of these reviews is to assess how safe these drugs are based on current studies. Blood clotting is a side effect that has been commonly associated with using these drugs. According to the studies conducted thus far, women using birth control pills containing drospirenone have seen an increase in the frequency of blood clotting.

As time has gone on, Yaz and other brand named pills containing drospirenone have been prescribed for more than just birth control. The pills have also been used by women 14 years of age or older to treat mild to moderate symptoms of acne. Yaz has also been prescribed to treat signs of PMDD (premenstrual dysphoric disorder) such as depression and anxiety. Though there has been no approval for Yaz as a PMS treatment, it has sometimes been given for this as well.

Many of these side effects in their severest forms could be life-threatening. A person that is affected by any of these conditions should get in touch with their primary physician or medical clinic right away.
