Hi,
Yes, you can stop taking the drug since there are severe side effects.You can consult with your gynaecologist and switch to another pill immediately after stopping the previous drug.
But it is highly essential to use another backup method of contraception for the first seven days until the new drug becomes effective.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
