Starting New Pack Alittle Late! Should I Worry?
Posted: 06-27-07 23:29pm

ok so usually im almost always 100% on time and good about taking my pill at 11am..the latest i've taken it is like 20 min afterwards. I've had alot going on lately and COMPLETELY forgot to take my new pack of pills(I'm on YAZ) with me to class this morning, i remembered when I got to class at 8am but i couldn't get home until 12:30..is it ok and am i still protected if i began my new pack of pills an hour and 1/2 later than I usually do? I was told that the first pill of the pack is one of the most important pills and you should be on time about it..but an hour and a half isn't bad is it..its not like i forgot to take it completely, so i should be protected and have nothing to worry about correct? Tomorrow I will definitely resume taking them at 11am sharp. thanks in advance for the replys

AN hour and a half is completely fine. Pills don't count as late until 6-12 hours.
