How Should A Missed Dose Of Progyluton Be Taken?
Question: On Friday I accidentally skipped over one white progyluton tablet and took a brown one. The same thing happened on Saturday night. Now I have taken 8 white tablets correctly and 2 brown tablets wrongly in place of white tablets. I still have 3 white tablets and 8 brown tablets left.
Should I continue with the white tablets I missed out? Or leave them and continue with the brown tablets since I have already taken 2 brown tablets?

Brief Answer:
Continue with brown pills.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
You have taken two brown tablets accidentally. These are enough to cause a withdrawal bleeding in a day or two. Now taking the rest of 3 white pills will cause a prolonged period or spotting.
It is thus best to leave the 3 white pills and continue with rest of the brown pills. Your periods will then start in a day or two.
Start with the next pack after the brown pills finish.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
