Mirena effectivity while on antibiotics

2017-10-13 17:47:50
I've been on Amoxicillin for a couple of days now, and I'm wondering if taking the antibiotics has an impact on my Mirena. I've heard that it can cancel out oral contraceptives, but I'm wondering if it has the same effect on intrauterine contraception.
