Suggest Dosage For Rigevidon After Missing A Pill
Hi! I forgot to take my Sunday and Monday Rigevidon pills. I freaked out and took the 2 missing pills and the one due today. I Am in the 3rd week of the pack. There is no risk of pregnancy. Should I finish this pack and continue onto the next without leaving a 7 day gap or should I stop now, leave the 7 days and start a new pack?

Hi,
If you have missed pills in the third week, take the active pills in the pack daily until you run out, then start a new pack the next day. Do not take the seven inactive pills or take a 7-day break. If you miss more than two pills, you should use a backup method of birth control (like condoms and spermicide) for seven days in a row.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
