Hi
You can just start the new birth control when you receive it. As long as you have no days off between your last pill of the old brand and your first pill of the new brand, your pregnancy protection will be maintained without interruption if you switch mid-pack.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
