Can delays of several minutes in the use of contraception reduce its effectiveness?

Good morning I take Vixpo birth control pills . But for the whole month I took them once at 13:00 and on the second day at 13:15 and on the third day at 13:25 and on the fourth day again 13:00 Does it affect the effectiveness of these pills before pregnancy ?

No, slight shifts in the time of taking the tablets do not affect the effectiveness of protection against pregnancy. The manufacturer states that a delay of up to 24 hours does not affect the functions of the tablets. I would like to remind you that on GdziePoLek you have the opportunity to check the availability of prescription drugs in stationary pharmacies and their reservation: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/83747/vixpo-tabletki-powlekane/apteki I also encourage you to read the articles: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jak-prawidlowo-stosowac-antykoncepcje https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jakie-leki-oslabiaja-skutecznosc-antykoncepcji
