                Reason for request
										Re-assessment of the actual benefit of third-generation oral contraceptives in response to a request by the Directorate-General for Health dated 27 December 2011.
									
									Clinical Benefit
| Insufficient | 
														
															 In 2012 the Transparency Committee considers that, taking into account both the increased risk of venous thromboembolic events and the lack of demonstrated benefit in terms of clinical safety in women exposed to third-generation oral contraceptives compared with second- or first-generation oral contraceptives, the actual benefit of these proprietary medicinal products must be regarded as insufficient for reimbursement by National Health Insurance.  |
