Question
Hi, im currently on the pill, Levlen ED. I also suffer hayfever and in the next couple of weeks i will be doing some work that will require me to take some hayfever medication. I'm just worried if the hayfever meds will interfere with the pill. I know painkillers can, will Claratyne affect the Levlen?

Answer
I've been doing some research online and I can't find any information on this. Try doing a search yourself and see if you can find anything. It might affect. Are you sexually active at this time and have to worry about this? You can email me at DWooley97@aol.com and maybe I will be able to find out more information.
