If you forget to take your contraceptive pill, it is recommended to take the missed pill as soon as possible. If less than 24 hours have passed since the missed dose, take the missed pill and the next one at the regular time. If it has been more than 24 hours, you can take both pills at the same time, although it may cause more side effects. Depending on where you are in your pill pack, you may need to use a backup method of contraception and consider emergency contraception if you have had unprotected sex. It is important to follow these steps to ensure effectiveness of your contraception.
