I started taking triorthocyclenlo on 08/01 & lost my pack on the 9th and decided to start a new pack from where i left off but started with 8th again.

If: If you didn't miss any pills and started on the pill in the replacement package corresponding to the pill you would have taken in the lost package, there should be no problem. Just throw the pack away after the placebos. If you started at the first pill in the new package, you should also be protected but you may experience some break through bleeding. Hope this helps.
