As with all forms of contraception there is an associated risk of blood clots causing stroke, DVT, pulmonary embolism and heart attack. Some say that you are at higher risk of these when using the patch versus oral contraception, but there is no conclusive medical evidence of this. Before using the ORTHO EVRA birth control patch, you must consult your doctor and pharmacist about all the prescription drugs, vitamins, and supplements you are taking and make an informed decision based on what is best for you.
