YOUR UNPLANNED-PREGNANCY RISK INCREASES WHEN YOU MIX THE PILL AND MEDS.
Popping a birth-control pill every day becomes such a reflexive habit, it's easy to forget that oral contraceptives are real drugs with potential serious interactions. But there's one interaction you must be aware of: taking the PILL with antibiotics. Thought the risk is small, some antibiotics may reduce the Pill's effectiveness. "These include common antibiotics like penicillin, which are taken for UTIs, bronchitis, and vaginal infections, "says Patrick McDonell, PharmD, associated clinical professor of pharmacy at Temple University, in Philadelphia. If you don't want a baby on board, use a backup method, such as condoms.
