Can you take a birth control pill in the morning and an antibiotic at night and the birth control still work?
No. That won't decrease the effects of the antibiotic on the birth control's efficiency.

Don't have unprotected sex during that time because you are at an increased risk of pregnancy. What time you take the pills won't help that - sorry :)
