Hello, I would like to ask if eating a burnt grilled sausage with some crumbs of charcoal on it can affect the absorption and action of Liberelle contraceptive pills? While putting it on the plate, the sausage slipped off the grate and the glowing coals fell. I immediately took it out and cleaned it, but I'm afraid that there might have been some minimal crumbs of these coals left on it

Eating a burnt grilled sausage or a sausage that fell from the grill and got dirty with charcoal does not affect the effectiveness of the Liberelle contraceptive pills. The effectiveness is maintained and there is no reason to worry.
It should be borne in mind that barbecue charcoal does not have the same properties as activated charcoal, which affects the activity of drugs (it has absorption properties). Activated carbon is obtained by burning barbecue charcoal at a much higher temperature, which affects the properties of the product.
Thus, it is true that taking activated charcoal (a drug or supplement) used for diarrhea affects the effectiveness of contraception, while charcoal used for grilling does not.
