I accidentally took my contraceptive pill twice on the same evening.

It is not a problem to continue taking your birth control pills as you normally would after accidentally taking two pills in one night. It may cause some extra nausea, but since birth control pills are now low-dose, it should not be a big concern. Just continue taking one pill per day until you finish the pack. All active pills in the pack have the same amount of hormones, so there is no loss of effectiveness by taking one less pill.
