Taking Marvelon And Missed It. Took 2 Pills At Same Time And Realized That Have Not Missed. Suggest?

I am taking this pill called Marvelon. I forgot to take my pill on Saturday from what I thought, it is now Sunday, I just took the Saturday pill and now the Sunday pill both at the same time because I just remembered. It has been more than 12 hours though. However, after taking them both I realised that I took the Saturday pill but from a different row by accident. I don't know what to do, I'm kind of worried

Hello
Its ok that you took both pills at the same time, as soon as you remembered. But dont miss any more pills in this cycle or you wont be protected. About taking the wrong pill from the different row, as long as its the same colour,its fine. If you remember to take the saturday pill from the row you missed before, you can continue,.If your are confused, abandon this pack. Start a new pack from your next cycle. use extra protection for the remainder of this cycle.
