Is pill still effective even if you're sick during the day?

Hello.

My fiancé went out last night for a night out and was sick at around 10pm. She usually takes her contraceptive pill at around 10-12 and it always works perfectly. When she got home she was sick again but after that she took her pill before 12 like normal and went to sleep fine she took it the day before too.

She was told that even if you have taken the pill and not missed it that if you're sick during the day / night it's not effective for the next 7 days and we cannot have unprotected sex until next Saturday. We don't think this is right is it?

Thanks
