Almost lost pill question

Okay, maybe a stupid question, but worth an ask I guess...

I almost lost one of my active pills tonight (OTC-lo), but after much searching I found it after I had already taken my next days pill (same color pill). So, my question is...would there be anything wrong with the pill that I did lose since it is out of the pack? My plan is to just take that one tomorrow since I took tomorrow's today. My guess is that all is okay, but I just wanted to make sure, because my fiance and I are celebrating an anniversary this weekend, and would like to do so without condoms. :) Anyhow, thanks for any input!

Hello, you know what, the pills of each colour all have the same amount of hormones in them. So I honestly do not think that it'll matter, if you take yesterday's one today, since it's the same number of hormones. As long as The colours are the same, then the hormones are the same, and everything should be alright.
