Postinor-1 (ECP or the morning after pill)
What Postinor-1 is used for...Postinor-1 is an emergency contraceptive only. Postinor-1 is not intended as a regular method of contraception. It is used to prevent pregnancy when taken within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse. It is estimated that Postinor-1 will prevent 85% of expected pregnancies. The sooner that you take Postinor-1 after unprotected intercourse, the more likely it is that the medication will work. Emergency contraception does not prevent a pregnancy in every instance.
For your safety, before selling you the ECP one of our Pharmacists will ask you some questions to assess whether it is right for you. In a private area, the pharmacist will advise you about the ECP and treat the sale as if it were prescribed it by your doctor.
