Are naraya plus birth control pills the same as naraya? The doctor prescribed me incorrectly and I don't know what to do. If I take naraya plus pills, can I take naraya now and then go back to naraya plus?

Yes, you can take Naraya instead of Naraya Plus and then switch back to Naraya Plus on a daily basis.
Naraya and Naraya Plus active tablets contain the same active ingredients in the same doses. The difference between the drugs is the number of tablets in the package. The drug you usually use, i.e. Naraya Plus, has 4 placebo tablets and 24 active tablets. Naraya, on the other hand, contains 21 active tablets, after which a 7-day break in the use of the drug should be taken.
So you can take Naraya without any worries. However, in order not to get lost, there are two ways to proceed:
1) After taking the 21st tablet, you can proceed as if you had missed a pill in the 3rd week of use, i.e. on the 22nd day of the cycle, start a 4-day break (due to the lack of placebo tablets). On the 26th day, you should then start a new package, this time Naraya Plus. Your contraceptive protection will remain maintained (as long as you take the pills in the correct and regular way for the 7 days preceding day 21 of taking Naraya).
2) You may also consider starting a new pack of Naraya Plus immediately after taking the 21st Naraya tablet, without taking any breaks. Perhaps it will be more convenient. This choice will most likely be associated with the absence of withdrawal bleeding, and spotting or mid-cycle bleeding may also occur.
