I am taking augmentin 1 g for sore throat. Does this affect Yasmin? Does antibiotic decrease effectiveness of Yasmin?

Dr. Zakia Dimassi Pediatrics
No. In principle, antibiotics (including Augmentin or amoxicillin-clavulanic acid) do not interact with oral contraceptive pills and thus should not affect their effectiveness.
