Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
Combination of ethinyl estradiol and drospirenone; primarily suppresses gonadotropins (FSH, LH) via negative feedback, preventing ovulation. Drospirenone has anti-mineralocorticoid and anti-androgenic activity.
Combination estrogen-progestin contraceptive; suppresses gonadotropin secretion, inhibits ovulation, alters cervical mucus and endometrium.
One tablet orally once daily for 24 weeks, followed by placebo tablets for 4 weeks; each tablet contains 0.15 mg levonorgestrel and 0.03 mg ethinyl estradiol for 21 days, then 0.01 mg ethinyl estradiol for 3 days, then 2 tablets of 75 mg ferrous fumarate for 5 days.
1 tablet orally once daily for 28 days; each tablet contains levonorgestrel 0.050 mg and ethinyl estradiol 0.030 mg (6 days), levonorgestrel 0.075 mg and ethinyl estradiol 0.040 mg (5 days), levonorgestrel 0.125 mg and ethinyl estradiol 0.030 mg (10 days), followed by 7 inert tablets. The first dose is taken on the first Sunday after onset of menstruation or on day 1 of the menstrual cycle.

Drospirenone: 25-33 hours; Ethinyl estradiol: 13-24 hours; steady-state achieved after 10 days.
Levonorgestrel: terminal half-life 11-45 hours (mean 24-30 h); Ethinyl estradiol: terminal half-life 10-27 hours (mean 17 h). Steady-state reached after 5-7 days.
Renal: 30-40% as drospirenone metabolites, 20-30% as ethinyl estradiol metabolites; fecal: 40-50% as drospirenone metabolites, 30-40% as ethinyl estradiol metabolites; biliary: minimal.
Renal (about 50-60% as metabolites, <10% unchanged), fecal (about 30-40% via biliary elimination). Ethinyl estradiol undergoes enterohepatic recirculation.
