Does an injection taken in the emergency room after a wasp bite affect contraception (vibin mini)? It was taken in the first placebo tablet, and at 3 I got bleeding.

This is what I wrote below - none of the drugs used as standard in the management of people stung by insects does not affect the effectiveness of contraception. However, usually in the event of an interaction that weakens the effectiveness of the tablets, it is recommended to use an additional form of protection for the next 7 days.
The problem is that I just don't know what injection I was given, and I'm afraid he might have interacted. And even if the drug interacts, do you have to protect yourself additionally only for 7 days?

You did not provide the name of the medicine used on the SOR. My guess is that it was adrenaline or some glucocorticosteroid used in lighter cases than anaphylactic shock. None of the drugs normally used in the management of people stung by insects affects the effectiveness of contraception. The above situation is quite stressful, which could have accelerated the onset of bleeding. If you have not missed any tablet, there is no reason for concern. I also encourage you to read the article: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jakie-leki-oslabiaja-skutecznosc-antykoncepcji
