A member asked:
If something was the interact with the birth control pill how long would it affect it for? so how long would the pill not be affective for?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
That cycle: A course of antibiotics can react with the pill making it less effective. If that is the case, the month you take the antibiotics you should not rely on the pill for birth control. If you continue taking something that interacts with the pill, you would have to extend the time you do not reply on the pill.
