A member asked:

I threw up 2 hours after taking my birthcontrol pill . was it absorbed in time ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hard to be sure: If taken on an empty stomach this would likely pass through to the absorptive upper intestines within an hour & be absorbed. If your stomach had been upset or you took it with a meal, it may delay passage for an extra hour or so making full absorption less likely.
