Yes, Rigevidon and Microgynon are replacements. This means that the composition of the active substances and their dosages are the same and the drugs can be used interchangeably. Taking the first tablet from the blister on the second and not on the first day of the cycle makes it necessary to use an additional method of contraception (condoms) for the first 7 days of the cycle. If I misinterpreted which tablet you omitted, please clarify.
