You can take your first pill the day after you start your period or the first Sunday following the beginning of your cycle. When you start taking Sronyx, you may need to use a backup birth control method, such as a condom or spermicide. You should follow your doctor's advice.

One pill per day is recommended, but no more than one every 24 hours. Start fresh when your pills run out - start a new package the following day. If you don't take one pill every day, you may become pregnant. Refill your prescription before you run out. Some birth control packages contain seven "reminder pills" to help you maintain your regular cycle. Usually, your period will begin when you start taking these reminder pills.

The chewable pill (tablet) should be chewed and then sucked down with water. If you prefer, you can swallow the tablet whole. Take it with an empty stomach. If you have severe diarrhea or vomiting, use backup birth control. You might experience bleeding during the first three months. If bleeding persists or becomes very heavy, please inform your physician immediately.

You may have to temporarily stop taking this medication if you are going to be undergoing major surgery or if you will need long-term rest. You should let any doctor or surgeon that treats you know that you use birth control pills. You will need to see your doctor regularly if you are taking birth control pills. Store away from moisture, heat, and light at room temperature.

What happens if I miss the dose?

Please read the instructions that come with your medication. You are more likely to become pregnant if you miss a pill. Take two pills the next day if you forget to take one. Take one pill a day for the remainder of the pack. If you missed two active pills consecutively in Week 1 or 2, take two pills a day for two consecutive days. Take one pill a day for the remainder of the package. After missing a pill, use a backup birth control method for at least seven days.

If you missed two active pills consecutively in Week 3, you can throw away the remaining pack of pills and begin a new one the next day, if you started on Day 1. If you started on Sunday, continue taking one pill each day until Sunday. On Sunday, discard the remainder of the package and begin a new one.

If you missed three active pills consecutively in Weeks 1, 2, and 3, you can throw the rest out and start over with a new package on the same date if you started Day 1. If you started on Sunday, continue taking one pill each day until Sunday. On Sunday, discard the remainder of the package and begin a new one.
