Had leg cramp issues with Yasmin so, my dr is switching me to Demulin. Has anyone been on this? What did you/ do you think?

I've taken demulen for about 4 years total, I'd say. I got along fine with it, I suppose, as far as side effects. I didn't know about PCOS then, though. I quit taking anything for a few years and then a new doc gave me Yasmin, so that's what I take now. Sorry I'm not much help. Do you think your leg cramps were potassium related with Yasmin?

I've been on Demulen 1/35 since 1996 and have had success with regard to regulating my periods, reducing the cramps, and controlling acne & mood swings (along with Spiro).

However the last couple of months the acne has returned and my last period was a doozy although that might be attributed to the fact that I went back to back on my pills for three months so there was a build up in the uterine lining.

I think Demulen is definitely worth trying and remember that you should give any new BCP at least three months to work its way into your system...don't give up and judge until month four.
