It is more likely that your symptoms are due to the recent illness or antibiotics rather than the Birth Control pill, particularly since you had symptoms during the sugar pills. Contact your health care provider for advice specific to your situation.

I don't see why not. It is to my understanding that antihistamines don't have an effect on hormone pills. It is true, however, that antibiotics do.

Yes, anitbiotics can lessen the affect on birthcontrol. You need to wait until you are completley done with your antibiotics. Then, I'd wait another three or four days.
