The label says if you are experiencing
vomiting you decrease the effectiveness.
Does throwing up once count? And how long
should you wait again for it to be
effective?

If you vomit less than 1-2 hours after
taking a pill it probably did not get a
chance to fully absorb. Many docs say
after 2 hours is pretty safe. You need to
have 7 full days of pill use for it to be
effective. If it is your period week and
you are starting them on your period, most
docs agree you are protected immediately.
It is called a day 1 start if you start on
your period.
