My daughter forgot to take her pill 3 days in a row. She doesn't take all 3 at the same time I guess?

Hello Ma'am,

No, indeed. We only take one pill today and throw away the other two.

If she is in the last two weeks of her pack, I recommend that we "skip" the week's worth of sugar pills and start a new pack as soon as this one is finished.

Good evening,

Alexandre Chagnon, pharmacist
