Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
Combination oral contraceptive containing norethindrone acetate and ethinyl estradiol. Norethindrone acetate is a progestin that suppresses gonadotropin release, inhibiting ovulation; ethinyl estradiol is an estrogen that provides feedback inhibition of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH), preventing follicular development and ovulation. Additionally, it causes changes in cervical mucus (increased viscosity) and endometrium (reduced receptivity).
Combination oral contraceptive: ethinyl estradiol and norgestrel inhibit ovulation via suppression of gonadotropins (LH, FSH); increase viscosity of cervical mucus, impairing sperm penetration; alter endometrial structure, reducing implantation likelihood.
One tablet orally once daily at the same time each day for 28 consecutive days.
One tablet (norgestrel 0.3 mg/ethinyl estradiol 30 mcg) orally once daily at the same time each day for 28 days, with 21 active tablets followed by 7 inactive tablets.

Norethindrone: 5-14 hours (terminal); Ethinyl estradiol: 10-20 hours (terminal). Steady-state achieved within 5-7 days; contraceptive efficacy maintained with daily dosing.
Norgestrel: ~45 hours (terminal). Ethinyl estradiol: ~13 hours (terminal). Steady-state achieved within 5-7 days.
Renal: ~50-60% as metabolites, <10% unchanged; Fecal: ~40-50% via bile; Ethinyl estradiol undergoes enterohepatic recirculation.
Renal 50-60% as metabolites, fecal 40-50% via biliary elimination. Ethinyl estradiol undergoes enterohepatic recirculation.
