Answer #1

if it was me I would have taken it as soon as I figured out I forgot, I think you only suppose to take two the next day if its the next day and then you realize it if you remember a few hours later but that same day, take it that same day.

Answer #2

I really dont think 2 and a half hours is that big of a deal. My friend did that once and she asked her doctor bou it and hes said that skippin it by 2 hours all the time isnt good but if it happens once in a while its really not that big of a deal.

Answer #3

If your doctor told you to just take two the next day if you miss a dose, then that’s what you should do. You should definitely talk to your doctor before you stop taking the pill, to make sure stopping abruptly won’t hurt anything. If you are going to quit taking the pill because of the loss or change of insurance, check out Loestrin’s website. There’s information on signing up for a patient savings card giving you the benefit of not paying more than $24 a month. I’m not sure what it’s all about, but it may be worth a try.
