NEVER stop taking penicillin without a doctor's consent, regardless of which Birth Control pills you're taking, because infections will come back.
The biggest difference is that Yaz contains 24 active pills and 4 inactive pills, which have no active ingredients and Yasmin has 21 active pills and 7 inactive pills. The smaller number of inactive pills reduces some of the symptoms that occur just before and during the period.
Yes, you will need to take your inactive pills. There are no hormones in your inactive pills and missing them will not increase your risk of pregnancy. The purpose of inactive pills is to remind you to take the pill everyday and when to start the next packet.
They're called "inactive" because that's what they are. They're simply reminder pills so that you start the next pack on time.
No you will not get your period while taking the active pills only the inactive pills. You may have spotting. If this is bothersome contact your doctor and they may give you another birth control pill that will work better for you.
No, I wouldn't say so. The inactive pills are exactly as the name states. Inactive. They are basically sugar pills which are put into the packet to make way for your menstrual cycle. If you wanna have sex during the inactive pills I'd use some other means of contraception.

Birth ontrol pills may not work as well while you are using Penicillin-VK . To prevent pregnancy, use an extra form of birth control (eg, condoms).

Yes. Just because you are on the "inactive" pills does not mean your birth control pills are not working. Just take them as directed.
Yes, skip the 7 inactive pills and go straight to the next packet of pills, the day after taking the last active pill, in packet 1.
I am not allergic to birth control pills.
