Should I Take Another Pill Post Vomiting After Taking Trifeme?

My girlfriend is on the combined pill (Trifeme). She took the pill at 830am and then had loose stools at approx 930am. She had a small vomit at approx 2pm. Then another bout of loose stools at 3pm.

She did not take a replacement pill and continued her pack as normal (it was around the 15-18 pill in the pack). We had unprotected sex that day and the two days afterwards. Is she still protected?

Hello,

She can take two pills on the next day. No need of any alternatives methods and no need to take any emergency pill either. Chances for getting pregnant is very unlikely and you can do urine pregnancy test just for reassurance.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
