The data do not allow us to formally conclude that there is no difference in terms of risk of thromboembolism between oestroprogestative contraceptives containing levonorgestrel and those containing norgestimate (OPTIKINZY).
- No efficacy or tolerance advantage of OPTIKINZY over levonorgestrel-containing oestroprogestative oral contraceptives has been demonstrated
