Hello sir and welcome.
Yes, ipills can be taken regularly, as and ehen required. But it is best not to take them too often. There will be no resistance developed against them to make them ineffective after a certain period of usage.
But there are some individuals who develop side effects after the use of ipills, and those individuals should use the pill with caution. And the pill is almost 98% effective in preventing pregnancy if taken within the first 24 hours after sexual contact.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes.
