cakes Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 Hi there, I've been taking Atkins Accel pills that increase metabolism and am also taking birth control pills. Does anyone know if by taking the Atkins pills, if it reduces the effectiveness of birth control pills. (I know taking antibiotics affects the effectiveness of birth control pills). So i'm just concerned if the Atkins would as well. A tkins is ephedra free and contains --- Green Tea Leaf Extract: providing 50mg caffeine and 90mg epigallocatechin gallate Accelerator Blend: 166.7mg (providing 25mg total methylaxanthines): Yerba mate leaf extract, Brazilian guarana seed extract and Theobroma cacau seed extract Thyroplex Blend: 50mg Guggul extract (Commiphora mukul), bladderwrack kelp, DL-phenylalanine and L-Tyrosine Other Ingredients: Dicalcium phosphate, microcrystalline cellulose, croscarmellose sodium, stearic acid, magnesium stearate, silica and food glaze.

Rainswept Posted May 31, 2004 Share Posted May 31, 2004 I think your best bet is to consult the physician who wrote you up the birth control.....I think I can speak for everybody here..by saying nobody really wants to give you the wrong advice.....and endanger your health Regards ~rainswept Link to comment
