Hi there

I am not understanding about the "careless" part. What are you meaning by that if you are taking birth control?

Here are some tips they give you:

Tri-Sprintec can be started either on the first day of your menstrual flow or the first Sunday after the start of your menstrual flow. A second form of birth control should be used during the first month of use.

Tri-Sprintec works best if it is taken at the same time each day, not more than 24 hours apart.

If you miss a dose of Tri-Sprintec , take it as soon as you remember. Take your next dose at the regular time. This means you may take 2 doses on the same day. If you miss more than 1 dose of Tri-Sprintec , refer to the patient information that came with Tri-Sprintec .

So did you forget a pill or did you not use a back up method?

Not knowing what you were careless about...I can't readily answer your question. I would consult with your doctor about your concerns.
