Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
Combination hormonal contraceptive. Norethindrone acetate suppresses gonadotropin release (FSH and LH) via progestogenic activity, inhibiting ovulation. Ethinyl estradiol provides negative feedback on hypothalamic-pituitary axis, further suppressing gonadotropins and stabilizing endometrium.
Combination estrogen-progestin contraceptive that suppresses gonadotropin release (FSH and LH) from the pituitary, inhibiting ovulation. Additionally, increases viscosity of cervical mucus and alters endometrial receptivity.
One tablet (0.10 mg ethinyl estradiol / 1.0 mg norethindrone acetate) orally once daily for 24 days, followed by 4 days of ferrous fumarate 75 mg tablets (placebo). Administer at the same time each day without interruption.
One tablet orally once daily for 21 consecutive days, followed by 7 days of placebo tablets.

Norethindrone: 7-8 hours; Ethinyl estradiol: 13-16 hours. Steady-state achieved within 5 days.
Ethinyl estradiol: terminal half-life ~17-24 hours; norethindrone: terminal half-life ~5-14 hours (mean 11 hours). The clinical significance is that steady-state is reached within 5-7 days.
Norethindrone: ~40% renal, ~60% fecal; Ethinyl estradiol: ~40% renal, ~60% fecal as glucuronide and sulfate conjugates.
Ethinyl estradiol is primarily excreted renally (40-45%) and via bile/feces (45-55%). Norethindrone is excreted 50-60% renally and 30-40% fecally.
