Could I Take Sugar Pills Along With Myzilar Birth Control Pills?

I am on Myzilar birth control pills. Do I HAVE to take the sugar pills the last week? Someone had told me they provide iron, which is good to have extra iron in your body while menstruating. I have also heard that the "sugar" pills make you gain weight. I don't want to take them when I am trying to lose a few lbs after the holidays!
