Hi,
Dizziness or fatigue can occur with contraceptive pills. Your body may need to adjust to the hormonal levels. Watch the pattern for the next few days and if the dizziness continues, it could be because of the drug.
Side effects may reduce in the subsequent cycles and hence continue the drug for few more days. Anti-emetics can be taken for a few days half an hour before taking the drug.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
