Question 1

How many brands of Combined Oral Contraceptives are registered in Nigeria?

Accepted Answer

We list 4 Combined Oral Contraceptives products from the NAFDAC Greenbook — Nigeria's official register of approved products — of which 1 has a currently active registration, including 2 combination products that pair Combined Oral Contraceptives with other ingredients. They are produced by manufacturers including Bayer Nigeria, Healthline. Combination products, and registrations the Greenbook currently lists as inactive, are clearly marked — Greenbook listings can lag renewals, so always confirm the number printed on the pack. Because it is drawn from the live register, this is far more complete than a typical brand list.

Question 2

Who manufactures Combined Oral Contraceptives in Nigeria?

Accepted Answer

1 company holds active Combined Oral Contraceptives registrations in the NAFDAC Greenbook. The largest by active listings is Bayer Nigeria. The "applicant" recorded in the Greenbook is the registration holder — usually the manufacturer or its Nigerian representative — and the full table above shows the applicant for every registered product.

Question 3

Are all these Combined Oral Contraceptives brands genuine?

Accepted Answer

Each brand here holds a NAFDAC registration in the Greenbook. However, counterfeiters sometimes copy a genuine NAFDAC number onto a fake product, so always confirm that the brand, manufacturer (applicant), and strength printed on the pack match the record before you buy, and purchase only from licensed pharmacies.
