Dear Anon, your question is a bit difficult because normally, if you miss today's dose, for example, tomorrow you would take today's and tomorrow's dose together. But you don't really know when you missed a dose so taking 2 today was actually not such a good idea, because you may have actually gone over your dose if you DID take a pill last night (keep in mind that oral contraceptives increase the risk of blood clots amongst other side effects). If this happens again and you CAN'T remember when you missed the dose, just take your regular dose and use an additional method of birth control.
Remember that if this is your very first pack of oral contraceptives, you should be using a second form of birth control for the first 2 weeks of your monthly pack.
