That's a normal thing to do if you're using the Birth Control pill for emergency contraception. (Only certain birth control pills can be used in this way, and the doses differ depending on the pill.) If you're just trying to make up for missed pills, taking four at a time has no benefit, and is likely to cause nausea and vomiting.

What happens if I take four birth control pills at once?
Birth control pills are hormones and will not help you better if you take 4 at one time. You need to take a pill each day for them to work otherwise you are not protected.
What if you take four birth control pills at a time?
Its not a good idea to take four birth control pills at a time to try and prevent pregnancy because if you already are pregnant, not even four pills can help you now and on top of that you wouldn't want to harm the baby if you already are pregnant. I know someone who had a physically deformed baby because she continued using her birth control pills while pregnant. She thought she would eventually end the pregnancy but she was so wrong. You should throw out your pack if you've missed four pills and start up a new one as soon as your period has come and gone.

When should you take your birth control?
You should take your birth control every day and at the same time each day. Taking your birth control this way will keep you 99.9% protected from pregnancy. Also, you should take your birth control at a time that is convenient for you, so that you do not forget to take your pills. Morning time is the best time to take your birth control. For example, take your birth control every day at 6 AM. Here is a tip, you should have your alarm already set for a time and have your pills by your bedside so that you do not forget.

What can taking four or more birth control pills do to you?
Speaking from experience DON'T DO IT!!! I will never forget to take my birth control again. When I took four of my beyaz pills to catch up, I had the worst stomach ache and I was up from 2:30-5:45 throwing up. It just wouldn't stop. I really do not recommened taking more than one at a time.
