Took My Bc At 5:45 Got Sick And Puked At 10...am I Still Ok?

As started in the title I took my pill at 5:45 at some bad pizza or something and puked at 10 am I still okay to just continue to take pills like normal or should I wait 7days for pills again? I had sex with my boyfriend today before I puked so am I covered or is me puking 4-5hours after I took my pill going to affect it?

Why would you wait seven days!? Do you mean, wait seven days before having unprotected sex again? Read the package inster; it has a lot of helpful information as to what to do when you get sick while taking the pills. I don't remember exactly what it says, but there is a certain time period that once you pass, you'll be fine even if you do throw up.

I thought for a moment you mean "wait seven days before taking another pill". Obviously not! I am just not sure how many hours it takes for enough of the hormone to be absorbed for you to be totally safe; please read the package insert as I know it has the info you're looking for.
