Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
Combination oral contraceptive containing ethinyl estradiol and norethindrone acetate. Inhibits ovulation by suppressing gonadotropin release (FSH, LH). Increases viscosity of cervical mucus, reducing sperm penetration. Alters endometrial lining to reduce implantation likelihood.
Combination of ethinyl estradiol and levonorgestrel suppresses gonadotropin release, inhibiting ovulation; alters cervical mucus to impair sperm penetration and endometrial receptivity.
One tablet (1 mg norethindrone acetate, 20 mcg ethinyl estradiol) orally once daily at the same time each day for 21 days, followed by one iron tablet (75 mg ferrous fumarate) orally once daily for 7 days.
One tablet orally daily for 21 days, followed by 7 drug-free days. Each tablet contains levonorgestrel 0.05 mg and ethinyl estradiol 0.03 mg (days 1-6), levonorgestrel 0.075 mg and ethinyl estradiol 0.04 mg (days 7-11), and levonorgestrel 0.125 mg and ethinyl estradiol 0.03 mg (days 12-21).

Norethindrone: 7-8 hours; ethinyl estradiol: 13-14 hours (with interindividual variability).
Levonorgestrel: 10-45 hours (terminal, biphasic); ethinyl estradiol: 10-27 hours (terminal, triphasic). Clinical context: Steady state reached after 7-14 days with daily dosing.
Renal: ~50-60% as metabolites; fecal: ~40-50% as metabolites; biliary excretion contributes to fecal elimination.
Renal: 30-50% (ethinyl estradiol and levonorgestrel metabolites as glucuronide and sulfate conjugates). Fecal: 30-50% (biliary excretion of unconjugated metabolites). Unchanged drug: negligible.
