Brief Answer:
No need to take a repeat dose.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
The tablet taken orally is absorbed within one hour. Vomiting is a usual side effect of such high dose hormonal pills. There is no need to take a repeat dose as you vomited almost 6 hours after taking the tablet.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
