Hello, my doctor just prescribed Sprintec as a replacement for my old pill. I started right after finishing the old pack. Do I need to use a back-up method for the first 7 days ?

Hello, Amy! How are you?

No, if you didn't miss any days, then you should be fine to do a seamless switch.

Is there anything else I can help with?
