Hello there. .
I can understand your concern. .
These tablets are reliable enough if taken daily.
And she should take the tablets as suggested and not as she likes.
When not taken as directed, chances of messing up are more. And she might have missed one or two tablets for sure.
Everyone does.
Best regards.
