I was using ortho-cept and ran out have some minastrin 24 fe. Is it safe to go straight from one to the other? ## Hello, Araceli! How are you?

I am taking Ortho cept and I was given methylprednisolone 4mg to take for my plantar fasciitis. I want to know how long it will affect it.

Who told you that it reduces the birth control effectiveness?
