I am on BCP lo loestrin fe. I got prescribed some antibiotics (ciprofloxacin) as I had an UTI. I had unprotected sex during that time. should I take plan B? I'm not sure if the pill is affected by the antibiotic. I also tend to take it a few hours late on weekends.

Hi Mary,

Use another method of birth control, like a condom, while you are on the antibiotic.  It can affect Plan B (emergency contraceptives) as well as your Loestrin FE.

Do not use Plan B in conjunction with your daily pill.  You do not need the high levels of hormones in Plan B.  It is an "emergency" pill, not a backup.  Your daily pill is FAR MORE effective than any emergency pill is.

Hope it helps.
