PDA

View Full Version : HELP! I screwed up taking my pills!

I was feeling EXTREMELY nauseous yesterday and I threw up shortly after taking my pill at 7pm. I took another one from an extra pack at about 8:30pm, but I can't remember if I threw that pill up (I am almost positive I didn't). I ran to the bathroom a few times after taking that one but I don't think I lost it. Anyway, I woke up feeling better about 3am and took another one. (I was thinking.... "Just to be sure.") :confused:

I was just wondering if I should be worried about taking 2 pills in one day? Do I need to use backup? The directions that come with my pills say if I miss one, take it soon as I remember, and I do not need backup. Well, I technically didn't MISS one, so I should be okay right? I took mine today like I always do at 7, but I am just paranoid about screwing up yesterday!! Please help! :)

You dont have to be worried. What bc do you take? I take Tripasil or whatever. It says the same thing in there. If you miss one active pill, take the pill as soon as your remember. It wont hurt you to take both on the same day.

Actually, that's a good question. I'd probably call the doctor's office just to be sure because I'm not entirely sure what to expect if you take more than 1 in a day. But then again, the morning-after pill is like a mega dose of 2 per day for a few days, so you'll probably be fine.

But the best rule of thumb when dealing with bcp's is, when in doubt, just call your doc's office to make sure.
