Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
Norepinephrine and dopamine reuptake inhibitor; also weakly inhibits serotonin reuptake. Enhances synaptic concentrations of norepinephrine and dopamine, particularly in prefrontal cortex.
Combination oral contraceptive containing ethinyl estradiol and norethindrone. Suppresses gonadotropin release (FSH, LH) via estrogen and progestin negative feedback, inhibiting ovulation. Changes cervical mucus viscosity and endometrial lining to impede sperm penetration and implantation.
100 mg orally once daily with food.
One tablet (norethindrone acetate 1.5 mg, ethinyl estradiol 30 mcg) orally once daily.

Terminal elimination half-life is approximately 12-15 hours in healthy adults; prolonged in renal impairment (up to 30 hours in severe impairment).
EE: terminal half-life ~17 ± 8 hours; NET: terminal half-life ~8 ± 1 hours. Steady-state achieved within ~2-3 cycles.
Primarily renal excretion as unchanged drug (approximately 70%) with the remainder as inactive metabolites; less than 10% excreted in feces.
Ethinyl estradiol (EE) and norethindrone (NET) are excreted in urine (40-60% as metabolites) and feces (20-30% as metabolites). NET is also excreted in bile and undergoes enterohepatic recirculation.
