Good morning. I recently had a viral infection. Only once on Friday I took ibuprom max and strepsils. This morning I drank a cup of orange juice, which according to the package in 100 ml has 24 g of vitamin C and then after 2 hours the contraceptive pill Drovelis. Can their effectiveness be reduced?

Orange juice probably had 24mg of vitamin C, not 24g. The effectiveness of contraception is not reduced. Vitamin C taken at a dose above 1000mg may affect the effectiveness of contraception. You can read more about it here:

I am attaching a link that you can use to make a reservation for Drovelis at the pharmacy of your choice:
