To @Karolina: Since these are trace amounts - they will not affect. Protection is maintained.
And in the case of VARIVAX, where there are trace amounts of neomycin, will this also not have an effect?

No, chickenpox vaccines (Varilrix, Varivax) do not affect the action and effectiveness of Yasmin birth control pills.
