Hello, I have a question if eating something stale right after taking a contraceptive pill can affect its absorption, I took the pill and then I ate a piece of croissant that I just opened and it was not expired but it had a strange taste, and I have this question how long do anti pills take to absorb vibin Mini.

To @Moniaaa:

Intermittent fasting does not reduce the effectiveness of birth control pills. The key to their effectiveness is regular intake at a fixed time of the day, regardless of eating meals. Contraceptive pills can be taken with or without food, and their effect does not depend on the eating window.

Hello, does intermittent fasting reduce the effectiveness of birth control pills? Because I read such information on the Internet. I always took them. In the morning, when I was still on the fast. It was a shock for me, because you can take pills with or without food, but I'm not a specialist, maybe it actually reduces the effectiveness when you don't eat for 16 hours. It was advised to take the pills in an eating window of 8 hours. Please give me an opinion. Regards Moniaaa

To @Kasia:

Consumption of a small amount of expired whipped cream (one teaspoon) will not affect the effectiveness of the contraceptive pill Liberella, as long as you do not experience vomiting or diarrhoea within a few hours after taking it. Please remember that the consumption of expired dairy products, such as whipped cream, carries the risk of food poisoning.

And a small piece of mold on the nozzle from a package of whipped cream spray

And can eating a teaspoon of expired whipped cream 3 hours before taking the Liberella contraceptive pill affect the effectiveness if vomiting or diarrhea does not occur within 3-4 hours? Only after eating did I pay attention to the expiration date

If you have any suspicions that the medicine may have been falsified or you have doubts about its quality, you should contact the pharmacy where you filled the prescription.

Hello, I wonder why when I take the contraceptive pill lately I feel that it has a strange taste ? So metallic. The previous ones from the blister were tasteless. Are they overdue despite the date of 2025? Do they protect me anyway? Greetings Izka

Nieświeże jedzenie może mieć wpływ na skuteczność tabletki antykoncepcyjnej, jeśli po jej spożyciu wystąpią wymioty lub biegunka. Odstęp czasu, jaki podają ulotki jako bezpieczny, pomiędzy przyjęciem tabletki, a wystąpieniem tych dolegliwości to 3-4 godziny.
