Combined oral contraceptive pills with a fixed amount of estrogen and progestin in each active tablet are termed monophasic, those with varying amounts of the two hormones are termed biphasic or triphasic.
Sprintec is monophasic containing ethinyl estradiol/ norgestimate (0.035MG/ 0.25MG) and Tri-Sprintec is a triphasic birth control containing ethinyl estradiol/ norgestimate in the following strengths (0.035MG,0.035MG,0.035MG/ 0.18MG,0.215MG,0.25MG).
