Does It Matter What Stage Of The Pack You Start Taking The Loette?

Hi. I am taking Loette. I took all pink tablets and am up to the white pills. I have decided not to physically take them and just not take anything for that week. So not starting the pink tablets just go through the week without taking anything. Is this ok?

Hi,

If the complete tablet course is not taken, effectiveness of the drug will be reduced. Hence, do not stop the drug in between in order to maintain drug efficacy.

Hope that was helpful.Let me know if i can assist you further.
