I have been on sprintec for almost three years and have been using condums for awhile,however i missed one days pill in week three.. I had sex and the condum broke, I went to take that days pill and realized that I missed the days before, I looked it up and read a column that said to take both pills and the next days pill take it as your normal route. I have been take Amocillin, its a antibotic pill but I checked to see if it would have affect with my birth control and it read no.. Can or am I going to get pregnant?

The Amoxicillin certainly can cause oral contraceptives to be less effective, though it is a low percentage stated to be about 1% of the time.

The issue, of course, is that you're coupling it with several other increased risks, such as missing a pill and a broken condom. Thus, you should probably have a pregnancy test done, just to be sure, one way or the other.
