A member asked:
Suffered migraine yesterday.took birth control pill and threw up 1.5hrs later.should i take two pills today?or just use a back up bc method for 7 days
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Back up method : Generally, if you vomit within 30 minutes of taking a pill, you can assume you did not absorb it and need to repeat the dose. Vomiting 90 min after the pill is not too worrisome. I would use backup birth control.
