Taking the tablets from each pack starts with 24 pink tablets containing the active substances, followed by 4 white placebo tablets. You don't need to take placebo tablets as long as you remember to start a new pack of medication after a 4-day break. The purpose of placebo pills is to get patients into the habit of using the drug.
You can check the availability of Drovelis in pharmacies in Polish at the following address:

To @Елена:
A decrease in the volume of menstruation and its shortening is a common effect of using birth control pills, especially in the first few months. Lower abdominal pain can be related to the body's adaptation, but if it is intense or persistent, it is worth consulting a doctor. As for the white placebo pills, skipping them does not affect the effectiveness of contraception, provided that the pink pills are taken regularly. There is no need to avoid sex on the last day of the blister if the medication is used as directed.
Hello, I also have one question, About taking these birth control pills. Previously, menstruation lasted for five days - Abundantly!!
Now Start after taking the second white placebo pill. They last only two days, there are very scanty periods.
And stop, Immediately after taking a new pink pill from a new pack. The lower abdomen pulls, the feeling that not all periods have come out ... Is this normal?
I started taking the drug recently, in five days I will start a new, third pack.
From the answer, I realized that it is not necessary to take four white pills! This is pleasing! Perhaps something will change...
I also wanted to know if it is necessary to avoid sex, on the last day on the 24th pill???
