Can moist air in a room with an open window affect the effectiveness of birth control pills?

I had the window open for a long time, all night, when the humidity was probably increased due to the fact that every now and then it rained slightly. I keep a pack of birth control pills in the drawer of my chest of drawers. Could something have happened to them? I take Daylette

To my knowledge, in the described situation, the effect of moist air was too low to reduce the effectiveness of the contraceptive pills in the package. I enclose a link to posts about a similar problem: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/opinie-i-pytania/12443/czy-kilka-kropli-wody-na-opakowaniu-tabletek-antykoncepcyjnych-moze-im-zaszkodzic https://www.gdziepolek.pl/opinie-i-pytania/19013/czy-wilgoc-na-tekturowym-opakowaniu-moze-negatywnie-wplynac-na-jakosc-tabletek-an

So if, despite the fact that I have a window open when it is cold, for example, as throughout the night when it is 10 degrees outside, sometimes even less, it will not affect the tablets, if cigale I have so open window?

Up to @Gabriela: Lower temperatures (10-18°C) do not affect the effectiveness of Vines tablets.

And if I keep the pills in the cabinet and now it is cooler outside after 18 degrees during the day at night nawey after 11, 12 degrees, if there are such temperatures and it is cold and I usually have all the time open the window and the room, can it somehow affect the vines? Because I know that higher temperatures yes, but what if there are low temperatures outside, and I have a constantly open window, so the cold is also in this room, what do I keep tablets?

To @Gabriela: No, if the drug was exposed to short-term sunlight and was behind the glass - this does not affect its effectiveness. Protection is maintained.

And if they lay somewhere 40 minutes in a cabinet, but behind a glass on which light could fall, does this reduce their effectiveness?

To @Gabriela: No, it does not disturb.

So if it's hot, the window is usually all day and all night, but it does not rain on the tablets because they are hidden in the cabinet, it does not reduce the effectiveness?

For @Gabriela: Storing tablets in a room where the window is open will not interfere with their operation.

To @Monika: No, the tablets are in a blister that protects them from moisture, especially in the case of short-term exposure.

And if today I bought pills in the Vibin pharmacy and it is raining outside, can something happen because of the humidity? The pharmacist wrapped my pills in a plastic bag and I put them in a bag. I did not notice that they were wet.

So I can continue to take pills from this package and others that I had in stock in the same place without fear?
