You shouldn’t smoke anyway, but especially not if you take estrogen containing birth control pills like Kelnor 1/35. Smoking increases the risk of serious side effects like blood clots, especially in women who are older than 35.
Don’t take Kelnor 1/35 if you’re allergic to any of its ingredients. Signs and symptoms of an allergic reaction to Kelnor 1/35 are rare and usually very mild and may include itching, hives, or dizziness. Serious allergic reactions to Kelnor 1/35 can occur in very rare cases. Stop taking Kelnor 1/35 and call 911 immediately if you experience swelling in the lips, mouth, or tongue, or if you have a hard time breathing.
Kelnor 1/35 isn’t for everyone. Women with a history of certain medical conditions like heart disease, high blood pressure, kidney disease, liver cancer, or severe migraines should not take Kelnor 1/35.
