ellaOne

Who can take this morning-after pill?

ellaOne is suitable for women over the age of 18 who have had unprotected sex or have experienced contraceptive failure. It can be taken up to five days (120 hours) after you have had unprotected sex.

This emergency contraceptive is completely safe for most women to take. If you are breast feeding, you should leave 36 hours after you take this pill before breast feeding again. You should not take this contraceptive pill if you think you may already be pregnant. You are not advised to take more than one ellaOne pill during the same menstrual cycle.

Some medications that are used to treat epilepsy, HIV and bacterial infections, as well as herbal remedies used to treat depression and anxiety, can make ellaOne less effective at preventing pregnancy.

How do I use ellaOne?

Swallow one tablet no later than five days (120 hours) after unprotected sex. This pill can be taken anytime, with or without food. You can also take the ellaOne emergency contraceptive pill at any point in your menstrual cycle. If you vomit within three hours of taking the pill, you should contact your doctor to discuss whether a second dosage is advisable.

This morning-after pill can only be used once in a menstrual cycle. If you have unprotected sex again during this time, you will not be able to use another emergency contraceptive pill. You are strongly advised to use a condom until your next menstrual cycle. If you are using a daily contraceptive pill, you can continue them as normal after you take ellaOne.

It's important to remember that ellaOne is just a contraceptive; it will not protect you from any sexually transmitted diseases.

Does it cause any side effects?

ellaOne can cause some side effects for a small number of users. Possible side effects include mild bouts of dizziness, drowsiness, blurred vision, becoming unsettled and unable to concentrate. No serious side effects have been reported in studies to date. If you are concerned about these possible side effects, you could also consider Levonelle which is another effective morning-after pill.
