When pharmaceutical companies are required to revise drug labeling, the company must submit revised changes to the FDA, who in turn must approve supplemental label changes based on factors such as side effects, dosage changes, and additional indications for use. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) and U.S. National Library of Medicine (NLM) website DailyMed is another resource that contains over 100,000 drug listings submitted to the FDA and allows consumers to search for drugs based on name, National Drug Code (NDC), drug class, or set ID. DailyMed is the official provider of FDA label information or package inserts and can be accessed at https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed.

The U.S. National Institutes of Health maintains the DailyMed electronic database, which contains more than 85% of the labels for FDA-approved drugs, and is freely available and searchable at: https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/. We herein performed a systematic search of the labels of FDA-approved drugs included in the DailyMed database to identify the drugs where the labels recommend that contraception should be used by patients during and/or after treatment. We also summarize the relevant information about these drugs, including the reason why contraception is needed, and (when available) the length of time contraception should be used after the last dose. This brief review should provide a practical reference for medical professionals, health policy makers, researchers interested in reproductive medicine or drug development, and patients who are concerned about their reproductive health.
