Product Overview
About PLAN B
PLAN B is a medication designed for emergency contraception, intended to prevent pregnancy after unprotected sex or when other forms of contraception have failed. It contains the active ingredient LEVONORGESTREL, a synthetic progestogen that has been widely used in various contraceptive formulations.
Key Benefits & Uses
- Prevents pregnancy after unprotected sex or contraceptive failure when used within 72 hours.
- Highly effective in reducing the chance of pregnancy when taken as directed.
- Can be used as a backup method of contraception, providing a second chance to prevent pregnancy.
Active Ingredient & Action
LEVONORGESTREL works primarily by preventing or delaying ovulation, thereby reducing the chance of fertilization. It may also affect the lining of the uterus, making it less receptive to implantation of a fertilized egg. This dual action helps in preventing pregnancy when taken after unprotected sex.
Important Notes
It is crucial to follow the dosage instructions carefully and to use PLAN B as soon as possible after unprotected sex for maximum effectiveness. While generally safe, PLAN B may cause side effects such as nausea, fatigue, and headache. It is not intended for regular use as a contraceptive method and does not protect against sexually transmitted infections. Consult a healthcare provider for advice on the use of PLAN B and for any concerns regarding its use.
