What are the side-effects of stopping althea contraceptive pills ?

Hi. I`ve been using the Althea contraceptive pills for about 10 months now and I am satisfied w/ the result. But now I`m planning to stop the pills because I`m out of the country and I can`t find/buy the same pills here. Is it safe to stop taking the pills after i finish my last pack and not having a intercourse for almost two weeks now?What would be the possible effects?
