I have already answered this question below. This is the right thing to do and you should not take a break because you will lose the effectiveness of contraception.
Will it not affect the effectiveness of contraception if I take a total of 5 placebo pills and start a new blister on Saturday? Will that be the right thing to do? Shouldn't I take a break from using placebo?

In total, you have to take a 4-day break from active pills and start a new Slinda pack on Saturday.
Thank you for the answer 🙂 So since on Tuesday I took 2 placebo tablets, including one from the spare blister, today on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday I still have to take 1 tablet placebo and on Saturday as always start a new blister of active tablets "Slinda"?

No, taking two placebo pills by mistake has no effect on the effectiveness of contraception, as these pills are empty. I am attaching a study that may be helpful: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jakie-leki-oslabiaja-skutecznosc-antykoncepcji
