I think PLAC in this context might stand for "placebo".
So in your provided example:
"0.03 mg + LEVONORGESTREL 0.15 mg + PLAC Blister of 28 tab1,"
It likely indicates that some of the 28 tablets in the blister pack are placebos. These are usually included in birth control pill packs to maintain a routine of daily pill-taking without providing active hormones during certain days.

: But this contradicts your comment on Andy's answer. The term gets plenty of hits.
