In the case of combined use of Microgynon 21 and the antibiotic Zinnat, it is recommended to use an additional method of contraception throughout the period of antibiotic therapy and at least 7 days after its completion. In your case, when you start a new pack of the drug, the contraceptive protection will be restored. We wrote more about what drugs weaken the effectiveness of contraception in the article: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jakie-leki-oslabiaja-skutecznosc-antykoncepcji I enclose links to check the availability of medicines and make reservations in selected pharmacies: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/86014/zinnat-tabletki-powlekane/apteki https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/48863/microgynon-21-tabletki-powlekane/apteki I encourage you to read additional materials, You may find useful: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jak-prawidlowo-stosowac-antykoncepcje https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/czy-jedzenie-i-picie-obnizaja-skutecznosc-antykoncepcji
