Hello, I take Vines birth control pills on a daily basis. Today I was assigned Azitrolek 500 antibiotic. I have a question: if I have already taken this antibiotic today in the morning and less than 6 days ago and yesterday I had intercourse, am I fully protected? And whether it somehow affects the action of the tablets. Thank you in advance for your reply

Yes, it did not affect.
Thank you, so today's taking of the antibiotic did not affect the action of the tablets taken earlier?
