Brief Answer:
No effect on ipill.
Detailed Answer:
Hello Ms XXXXXXX
Thanks for your question.
Relax, there is no interaction or effect on the iPill if you have taken these antibiotics after three hours, there might be some effect on the antibiotics though, iPill may cause the antibiotics to be removed from the body slightly faster, but it doesn't matter much. So relax.
Next time please use some form of protection to avoid repeated dosages of iPill, which is a hormone and will cause hormonal changes in the body which may not be pleasant.
I hope this answers your question. Please do write back if you need further information.
Wishing you good luck.
Regards,
No effect on ipill.
