If you took the Limetic tablet 5 hours later than usual - the protection is still preserved. According to the manufacturer: "If more than 36 hours have passed between taking two consecutive pills, the contraceptive effectiveness may be impaired. If the delay in taking the tablet is less than 12 hours, the missed tablet should be taken by the woman as soon as she remembers it, and the next tablet at the usual time."
