Since iron ions reduce the absorption of tetracyclines and penicillamine from the gastrointestinal tract, the simultaneous use of Gyno-Tardiferon® and these drugs should be avoided.

Due to a decrease in the absorption of iron when taking antacids (calcium-, aluminum- and magnesium-containing products), the interval between taking them and Gyno-Tardyferon® should be at least 2 hours.
