Get back on the pill and use a back up method until you have taken 7 pills in 7 days. If you were more than half way through the packet you were taking skip the inactive pills in the packet and go straight to the active pills in your next packet. If you were still in the first week just start taking the pills as if you had not missed any, but you will still need to use back up BC until you have taken 7 pills in 7 days.
