Do cold medicines weaken the effectiveness of the disc and when will I be protected?

I've been sick for a week and I'm taking different medications (I don't know if they affect the effectiveness of the disc) today I took out the disc and if I put it in a week, how long do I have to wait to be sure that everything works well?

Most oral medications, including popular cold medicines with vitamin C, paracetamol, ibuprofen if taken in therapeutic doses (you do not exceed the permitted daily dose), do not affect the effectiveness of the disc. However, if they were drugs that could in any way reduce the effectiveness of contraception, when you put in a new disc in a week, protection will already be provided from the first day of wearing the new disc.
