In this case, start taking the tablet as soon as you remember and use a different method of contraception such as condoms for at least the next seven days to prevent pregnancy. Frequently missing doses may cause unexpected vaginal bleeding or spotting. Consult your doctor if this persists.

Q: What happens if I vomit the Janya tablet?

A: If you vomit the Janya tablet within three to four hours after taking it, it is considered a missed dose. So, you should take another dose as soon as you can. Consult your doctor if it happens again.
