Well, seeing as the patch uses the same active ingredient as the Pill, it's no wonder the antibiotics had an effect. The same thing would have happened had you been on the Pill.
Breakthrough bleeding is a common side effect with any hormonal method. No worries. It is more common with some hormonal methods than others (eg: Depo-Provera v. the Pill).

IF YOUR DOCTOR PLACES YOU ON ANTIBIOTICS AND YOU USE HORMONAL BIRTH CONTROL, PLEASE REMEMBER TO USE A BARRIER METHOD DURING YOUR COURSE OF TREATMENT.
