Anti-arthritis, the European drug agency: with caution in patients at risk for blood clots
Depressed mood and depression are known side effects associated with hormonal contraceptives. Depression can be severe and is a risk factor for the onset of suicidal behavior and suicide. Patients should therefore be informed and contact their doctor if they notice mood swings and depressive symptoms, even if they occur shortly after starting treatment. The warning applies to all hormonal contraceptives sold in pharmacies, ie pill, patch, vaginal ring, spiral and implant for subcutaneous use.
