Hello. If I took antibiotics during the last week of taking contraceptive pills and during a 7-day break, i.e. a total of 2 weeks, do I know that during antibiotic therapy and after at least 7 days I must use additional protection. But due to the fact that here fell an additional break, these 7 days will be enough or I did not need to do this break at all? Thank you in advance for your answer, best regards.

You did the right thing by taking a 7-day break. Additional contraception should be used while taking the antibiotic and for 7 days after the end of antibiotic therapy, regardless of whether this situation falls out while taking active pills or during a 7-day break. After 7 days after the end of antibiotic therapy, protection is already preserved. More here: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jakie-leki-oslabiaja-skutecznosc-antykoncepcji
