This pharmaceutical tablet purchased inside the United States should contain norgestimate 0.215mg + ethinyl estradiol 0.025mg. It is a common 'low dose' birth control/hormone replacement therapy product. Analyzed to verify DrugsData's ability to identify ethinyl estradiol because of samples sold as estradiol submitted in Nov 2022.
Norgestimate present in the tablet was not detected by the lab. The lab does not have a norgestimate reference standard. These substances are outside DrugsData's primary mission and we will not be following up on this matter.

Should the public have access to independent analysis of the products they consume?
The vast majority of analyses of over-the-counter, prescription, and recreational drugs are performed in secret with no independent oversite or review. No other historical record, free from politically-controlled agencies, is currently available in North America nor most other parts of the world.
DrugsData, a project of Erowid Center, needs the support of professionals, students, parents, individuals with means, and small foundations for a total yearly budget of around $120,000 USD. Erowid Center's general budget and the co-pays we require fund most of this cost.
