Birthcontrol pills are marked mon-sun. u start on a thurs. finished that week and the next accidently take fri instead of thurs on a thurs. is that ok?

Same answer as B4: The pills are marked by the day to help people remember what to take. There is nothing special or unique about each pill and the days do not actually mean something. If you took the friday pill on a thursday then there is not problem. The pills are exactly the same.
