I usually take microgynon 30 as my pill and have done so for years. I'm currently in Spain travelling for a few months and the bag that had my pills in was stolen.
I went to the pharmacy and wrote down 'microgynon 30' to see if they'd sell me some over the counter. They gave me the little green and white box with a months supply no problem.
It was only when I got home the packet only said 'microgynon' and not 'microgynon 30'. Are these the same pill? I have been taking the new pills for the past few weeks and I looked at the information on the leaftlet that was in spanish and I think it said it had the same ingredients but I would like to confirm that.
I did try to call my doc in the UK but couldn't get through.

It's either microgynon 30 or 60 so it wont make any difference to your contraceptive protection. If it's the 60 mg dose it might make side-effects more noticeable that's all. Happy Travels!!
