Miudella — A Lower-Dose Copper IUD
Miudella (Sebela), a copper intrauterine device (IUD), has been approved by the FDA for prevention of pregnancy for up to 3 years. Miudella is the second copper IUD to be approved in the US; ParaGard, which contains more copper and is approved for up to 10 years of use, was approved in 1984. Four hormonal IUDs (Mirena, Liletta, Skyla, Kyleena) that release the progestin levonorgestrel are also available for pregnancy prevention.
