Hello,

Since you took the pill on the night and vomited only the next day morning, the effectiveness of the pill will not be affected. Continue with your current pill pack as scheduled. And follow the 7 days pill-free period as scheduled. There is no risk of pregnancy.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Lekshmi Rita Venugopal, General & Family Physician
