Like all medicines, Bredicon can cause side effects, although not everybody gets them. Tell the doctor if noticing any unwanted effect, especially if severe or persistent. Serious side effects associated with the use of Bredicon are described in Precautions. Read the following for additional information on Breast cancer and Thrombosis and consult the doctor at once where appropriate.
The doctor should be seen immediately if allergic reactions (hypersensitivity) are experienced, including swelling of the face, lips, tongue, and/or throat causing difficulty in breathing or swallowing (angioedema and/or anaphylaxis).
Vaginal bleeding may occur at irregular intervals while using Bredicon. This may be just slight staining which may not even require a pad, or heavier bleeding, which looks rather like a scanty period. Tampons or sanitary towels may need to be used. Any bleeding may also not occur at all. Irregular bleeding is not a sign that Bredicon is not working. In general, any action need not be taken; just continue to take Bredicon. If bleeding is heavy or prolonged, the doctor should be consulted.
