Will taking the 2h pill earlier affect the effectiveness of contraception? I took the first tablet (Orlifique) of the third order at 20:30 and usually takes 22/22:30. At 9 p.m. I drank alcohol. Is protection maintained in this situation?

No, taking the pill 2 hours earlier than usual will not affect the contraceptive effect of the pills. Protection is preserved. Alcohol consumption does not affect the effectiveness of birth control pills unless vomiting has occurred. First of all, special attention should be paid not to delay the reception of tablets. If the delay does not exceed 12 hours, contraceptive protection is maintained. However, it is best that the tablets as prescribed be taken at a fixed time.
