The 1987 survey of preferences in pill prescription for new patients by subscribers to Contraceptive Technology Update showed that the degree of popularity of the triphasic ON 7/7/7 varied slightly by the type of practice setting. Over 75% of Planned Parenthood clinicians preferred ON 7/7/7, reflecting contracts with Ortho Pharmaceuticals. Fifty-nine percent of both public health clinics and independent clinics chose ON 7/7/7 as first choice. Similarly, 58% of college clinics preferred ON 7/7/7. The proportion of doctors in private practice choosing ON 7/7/7 was just over half. Second choices were ON 1/35 by Planned Parenthood and public health clinics, Triphasil by private physicians, Trinorinyl by college clinics, and a close tie for ON 1/35, Triphasil and Trinorinyl by independent clinics.
