Josifien Tablet 21's is an oral prescription medicine used primarily to treat skin and systemic conditions linked to hormone sensitivity, such as moderate to severe acne and excessive facial or body hair growth (hirsutism) in women. It is typically prescribed when other treatments, such as topical creams or oral antibiotics, have not worked. Because of how it works in the body, it also functions as an oral contraceptive, meaning you should not take other hormonal birth control pills alongside it.
For this medicine to work effectively, you must take it consistently at the same time every day. You can take Josifien Tablet 21's with or without food, though taking it with food or at bedtime may help if you experience mild nausea. Making simple lifestyle adjustments, such as maintaining a gentle skincare routine and eating a balanced diet, can support your treatment results.
Some women may experience mild side effects, including nausea, stomach ache, breast tenderness, or slight changes in body weight. While these are often temporary, you must contact your doctor immediately if you experience signs of serious conditions, such as severe leg pain, sudden chest pain, or difficulty breathing, which could indicate a blood clot.
Before taking Josifien Tablet 21's, tell your doctor if you have high blood pressure, diabetes, migraines, or a family history of blood clots. Do not take this medicine if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have a history of liver damage, unexplained vaginal bleeding, or blood circulation disorders.

Josifien Tablet 21's is used to treat moderate to severe symptoms of PCOS, particularly androgen-sensitive acne and hirsutism (excess hair growth) in women of reproductive age. It works by reducing the effects of male hormones (androgens), which contribute to these symptoms.
Josifien Tablet 21's works by blocking the production of androgens (male hormones) in the ovaries.
Josifien Tablet 21's is also a hormonal contraceptive; it should not be used in combination with other hormonal contraceptives, as this will expose the patient to an excessive dose of hormones and is not necessary for effective contraception.
Josifien Tablet 21's does not protect against sexually transmitted diseases like HIV or Chlamydia. Only condoms can help do this.
Avoid using sunbeds or sunlamps and prolonged sunbathing whilst on treatment with Josifien Tablet 21's as it might increase the chance of chloasma (patchy discolouration of the skin).
Josifien Tablet 21's should be swallowed as a whole with water; do not crush or chew it. The dose will be determined by the doctor based on your condition.
If you miss a dose of Josifien Tablet 21's, take it within the next 12 hours. If it has been more than 12 hours, skip the missed dose and take the next dose at the scheduled time.
Repeat the dose if you have vomited within 3-4 hours of taking Josifien Tablet 21's. If it has been more than 4 hours, take the next dose at the scheduled time.
Yes, Josifien Tablet 21's works as an oral contraceptive by preventing ovulation and reducing the likelihood of pregnancy. However, it is prescribed primarily for women with PCOS who require treatment for androgen-related symptoms such as acne or excess hair growth, rather than solely for contraception.
Josifien Tablet 21's may cause nausea, abdominal pain, headache, weight gain and mood changes. Most of these side effects may not require medical attention and resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to consult the doctor if the side effects persist or worsen.
Improvement in acne may begin within a few weeks of starting treatment. However, hormonal treatments generally require consistent use for several months, and it may take 3 to 6 months to experience the full benefits. Continue taking the medicine as prescribed and consult your doctor if you do not notice improvement after several months.
Some women may experience minor weight changes or fluid retention when they start taking Josifien Tablet 21's. This is usually temporary as your body adjusts to the hormones. If you notice rapid or significant weight gain, talk to your doctor.
Spotting or breakthrough bleeding between periods is common during the first few months of taking Josifien Tablet 21's. If the bleeding is heavy, lasts for more than a few days, or occurs after you have been taking the medicine for several months, talk to your doctor.
You should highly avoid smoking while taking Josifien Tablet 21's. Smoking significantly increases the risk of serious cardiovascular side effects, including blood clots, heart attacks, and strokes, particularly in women over the age of 35. Talk to your doctor for support with smoking cessation.
No, you must not take Josifien Tablet 21's if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant. If you suspect you might be pregnant while taking this medication, stop taking it immediately and talk to your doctor.
While there is no direct interaction between alcohol and Josifien Tablet 21's, excessive alcohol intake can affect your liver function and may increase some side effects like headaches or nausea. It is always best to consume alcohol in moderation. Talk to your doctor if you have concerns about alcohol use.
You must inform your surgeon or doctor that you are taking Josifien Tablet 21's well in advance of any planned surgery. Because of the risk of blood clots during periods of inactivity, you may need to stop taking the medication several weeks before and after the procedure. Talk to your doctor to plan this safely.
