Besides offering to pay for her birth control out of pocket?
If she gets free birth control from the health department, she's probably part of the Family Planning Project. Urge her to find out what other methods are covered under FPP. In my area, ALL methods of birth control are covered, including IUDs, Depo-Provera, Nuvaring, the patch, and several kinds of pills, but that may be different depending on where she lives and who is funding FPP.
Does she know that there are probably more options available through the health clinic? She really should go back for another consultation if it's affecting her negatively. Most gynos just write a prescription for the most popular pill in the market without thinking, and the subsequent side effects of hormonal birth control on some women can be profound.
