Our pharmacist answers the latest question regarding taking the wrong birth control pill on the wrong day.
I take the birth control called "Emoquette", i took a white pill on the wrong day it was listed, is that okay? Are all white pills the same?
Yes, it is OK that you took a white pill that was not indicated as the day you were on. All of the white pills are in fact the same.
Each white tablet contains:
Desogestrel 0.15mg, Ethinyl Estradiol 0.03mg
