Dolishale 28 Day is a combination hormonal oral contraceptive containing Levonorgestrel 90 mcg and Ethinyl Estradiol 20 mcg. It is a continuous monophasic birth control pill — meaning all 28 tablets in the pack are active hormones with no placebo pills or hormone-free interval. This design can reduce or eliminate monthly periods over time.
Dolishale 28 Day is manufactured by Novast Laboratories / Ingenus Pharmaceuticals and is FDA-approved for the prevention of pregnancy. It works by suppressing ovulation, thickening cervical mucus to block sperm, and altering the uterine lining to reduce the chance of implantation.
Take one tablet daily at the same time each day for all 28 days. When the pack is finished, start a new pack the next day with no break. Begin the first pill on the first day of your period or the first Sunday after your period starts. Backup contraception may be needed for the first 7 days.
In addition to pregnancy prevention, Dolishale 28 Day is sometimes used off-label for menstrual suppression, endometriosis symptom management, dysmenorrhea (painful period) relief, and acne management.
