So i accidentally dropped my birth control pill in the sink but it just got wet. i took it right after, but i am not sure how effective it is. what should i do? take another one to be safe, or i should be okay? thank you?

Sounds like you will be fine as it doesn’t appear the pill dissolved to a significant degree. There is no need to ‘replace’ the tablet. Be well!

You said that you immediately took your pill and it just got a little wet. That's fine. Water won't affect the efficacy of the pill. Take care.
