I've been taking Microgynon 21 for 17 days. Today I vomited unexpectedly half an hour after taking the pill and took another, eighteenth tablet from the blister. Should I finish the blister to the 21st tablet and take a week's break as usual? Is the fact that I will take 20 pills instead of 21 dangerous for me and I should protect myself again with alternative contraception for a week of starting the next pack?

According to the package leaflet and the summary of product characteristics, you can take the 20th tablet and take a withdrawal bleeding break afterwards. You will start the next blister one day earlier. The effectiveness of contraception will be maintained.
On our website you can check the availability of the medicine and make a reservation at the pharmacy:
