Hello, can short-term exposure (10-30 seconds) of a blister of birth control pills to the light of devices such as a TV, phone or laptop screen affect their effectiveness if it was about a meter away?

No, exposure to light emitted by electronic devices does not affect the effectiveness of the contraceptive pill. Make sure that the medications are not placed directly on the device, which may, for example, heat up (medications should be stored at room temperature). The described situation will not adversely affect the active substances contained in the medicine.
On our website, you can check the availability of medication and make a reservation at the pharmacy. In case of any doubts, I encourage you to use the teleconsultation with a gynaecologist - the service is available on our website in the e-visit tab:
