What If I Miss a Dose of Tri-Norinyl?

Missing doses of Tri-Norinyl increases the risk of pregnancy. What you should do depends on how many tablets you have missed and where exactly you are in your cycle (see Tri-Norinyl Dosage). If you are not sure what to do, refer to the patient information that comes with each pack of Tri-Norinyl, or consult your healthcare provider.
