Good morning. If today at 7 I took the contraceptive pill vines and at 7 o'clock I started drinking orange and grapefruit juice, can it reduce the effectiveness of vines contraceptive pills?

In the case of consumption, after 12 hours from the Vines tablet, orange and grapefruit juice, as long as you have not exceeded 1000 mg of the daily dose of vitamin C, this does not affect the effectiveness of hormonal contraception. About what drugs and foods affect the effectiveness of contraceptive pills, we wrote in the article: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jakie-leki-oslabiaja-skutecznosc-antykoncepcji The consumption of lemon is subject to the same restrictions. Mint does not affect the effectiveness of the drug Vines: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/opinie-i-pytania/42406/vibin-czy-napar-z-miety-wplywa-na-skutecznosc-tabletek-antykoncepcyjnych

So I drank only these 940 ml juices and nothing else I took so I have nothing to worry about?

According to available publications, it is estimated that 100 ml of fresh citrus juice contains between 13 and 53 mg of vitamin C for every 100 ml. If no additional vitamin C was added in those carton juices that you drank, there is no risk of exceeding the daily dose of 1000 mg of vitamin C. A more detailed answer, without knowing the records on the juice packages, we are not able to give you.

Unfortunately, I did not see the packages of juices so I have no way to check because I do not know what they were dokalmie juices because it was when I was at friends and just got the juice in glasses There were no diarrhea or other side effects. Therefore, how do you think whether such an amount of these juices or up to 940 ml could affect the effectiveness because so far I do not know if I have to worry

The amount of vitamin C in 100 ml of juice can be found on its packaging. The given amount should be converted into the amount of juice consumed (a total of approx. 940 ml). In this way, you will check the amount of vitamin C consumed. Juices, according to the recommendations of nutritionists, should be consumed in moderation. Excess juices can cause, for example, the occurrence of diarrhea. The answer to the question about the use of furagin during treatment with Vines can be found in the link: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/opinie-i-pytania/20874/furaginum-czy-furagina-oraz-woda-z-cytryna-oslabiaja-skutecznosc-pigulek-vines
