Does Antibiotics Interfere With Efficacy Of Birth Control Pills?
I am taking falmina birthcontrol and for the last week I was on amoxicillin for a gum infection. The day after being done with my antibiotics I had unprotected sex. Should I take plan b being that antibiotics mess with birth control or should I be okay since I waited 24 hours after my antibiotics?

I really appreciate your concern, if you are already taking oral contraceptive medicine then no need to take any other contraceptive pill even if are on some antibiotic because antibiotic will not interact with the oral contraceptive, but let me inform you that not contraceptive devise is hundred per cent promising hope this information helps.
