Take them anyway, but use backup like condoms, spermicide, etc. That's what my OB told me one time. Don't ya love it when insurance companies slack off on the meds...because paying for a pregnancy is so much cheaper....

Anyone know about 'expired' birth control? How long do you think they are effective for? They were kept in the drawer of my nightstand in my bedroom so a cool, dry, dark place which I know keeps them better for a longer period of time. I tried googling it and some people say 'don't take it' while others say it's fine. Any input?
