"...There are no data on POI (progesteron only injectables) drug interaction, but the doses at wich POIs are used reduce the possibility that drug interaction would affect efficacy substantially. In the absence of data the use of altenative contraceptive methods should be incouraged for women who are on long term use of any liver enzyme inducing drug..."

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
