BAYER Diane-35 (Pink)

BAYER Diane-35 (Pink)

BAYER Diane-35 is a prescription hormonal medicine containing cyproterone acetate 2 mg and ethinylestradiol 35 micrograms per tablet. Bayer’s product information states that Diane-35 is used for certain androgen-related conditions such as moderate to severe acne and hirsutism in women of reproductive age, particularly when other acne treatments have not been successful. It also suppresses ovulation and therefore has a contraceptive effect.

Because Diane-35 is a prescription medicine with important contraindications, interactions and potential side effects, it should be used only under the direction of a qualified healthcare professional.
