Hi,
No you can not replace white pills instead of orange pills. Both pills are having different hormones based on your menstrual cycle. So for you, you should stop all the pills. Use barrier contraceptive measure like male condom. Restart your pills when you reach home.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
