Dear Ma'am, Hi & Welcome.

Taken within 72 hours following an unprotected sexual act, the post coital contraceptive pills like I-Pill is 85% effective in preventing unwanted pregnancy.

Based on the history given you seem to have suffered from intestinal infection for which you were prescribed the medications.
Mosquito bite like rashes appear to be due to allergy to some of the medications like Oxalgin or Zenflox-OZ. Stop taking these drugs and consult your treating doctor for the alternate but safe drugs for the suspected intestinal infection.

Very light bleeding could be due to hormonal imbalance resulting from the intake of high dose hormone in the I-Pill. Usually such type of bleeding subsides with 3-7 days after stopping the pill. Consult a gynecologist if the bleeding does't subside thereafter.

Hope these answer your query.
