I am on otc and I missed a pill the other day. I am about halfway through my pack. I was wondering how long I should use backup? I really appreciate any help I get.

Hi jmcs00 Welcome!

If you miss an active pill you should take it as soon as you remember it, even if it means taking two in one day, and use back-up for at least seven days of correct pill usage. I'm sure you will be fine! Thanks for stopping by.



Good luck,
