No, these medicines should not affect the effectiveness of contraception. Please just pay attention to whether the dose of paracetamol has not been exceeded - 3 grams per day, because this may reduce the effectiveness of contraception. The infection itself, e.g. a cold or simply fatigue, can delay the period by several days. I also encourage you to read the article: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jakie-leki-oslabiaja-skutecznosc-antykoncepcji
