Does clindamycin (Dalacin C) affect the effectiveness of Vibin mini tablets?

Does clindamycin reduce the effectiveness of vibin mini contraceptive pills? This ingredient is not mentioned on the vibin leaflet, so my question, because I had sex while taking an antibiotic, the main scldadnik of which is clindamycin (dalacin c)

The use of oral antibiotics, m.in Dalacin C (containing clindamycin), affects the composition of the intestinal flora. This may impair the contraceptive effectiveness of the pills used, e.g. Vibin mini, due to the effect on the absorption of the active substances: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/21077/dalacin-c-kapsulki/apteki https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/82281/vibin-mini-tabletki-powlekane/apteki The Dalacin C leaflet states "The effectiveness of intrasutant contraceptives used concomitantly with clindamycin has been questioned." During antibiotic therapy and a few days after its completion, it is recommended to use an additional method of contraception (e.g. condoms). I encourage you to familiarize yourself with additional materials that may be useful: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/opinie-i-pytania/50619/dalacin-czy-to-normalne-ze-po-zazyciu-dalacin-c-zaczelam-plamic https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jakie-leki-oslabiaja-skutecznosc-antykoncepcji If you had sex without additional protection, I encourage you to take a home pregnancy test. You can use the ultrasensitive tests available in online pharmacies and stationary pharmacies, such as: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/97388/domowe-laboratorium-pink-test-ciazowy-strumieniowy-super-czuly-test/apteki https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/54428/nordtest-test-ciazowy-plytkowy-test/apteki If you suspect pregnancy, you can also consult a gynecologist. It is possible to use the teleadvice offered, m.in, by the Gdziepolek.pl portal: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/telekonsultacja
