Hello, Sanny! How are you?

It isn't dangerous to take them both, but Purbac can reduce the efficacy of oral contraceptives, so you'll need to use another form of contraceptive, as long as your being treated with the Purbac.

The FDA lists the typical side effects of this antibiotic as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea.

Yasmin may cause side effects, such as nausea, headache, breakthrough bleeding and PMS-like symptoms.

Is there anything else I can help with?
