Took bc (combination pill) around 7:10, took a shot of alcohol, and threw up only the shot at 8:50/9. am i protected? was my bc absorbed?

Since you threw up: within less than 2 hours of taking the oral contraceptive, it may not have been adequately absorbed.

Alcohol=poison: Take extra precaution if you plan to have sex in the next couple of days. Have you partner use a condom. Alcohol is a poison that never did anybody any good, ever, so stay away from it.
