The morning after pill also called the emergency contraceptive pill, can be taken after unprotected sex to prevent pregnancy. The morning after pill is available to those over 17 years of age, if you meet the required criteria.

I NEED THE MORNING AFTER PILL, WHAT DO I NEED TO DO?

Here at Ballybrack Medical Hall our pharmacists treat requests for emergency contraception professionally and confidentially. Once you request emergency contraception online, you will need to call into the pharmacy where our in store pharmacist will ask a few simple questions before giving you the medication. This will ensure that the morning after pill is suitable for you to use. If for any reason it is not suitable, the pharmacist will be able to guide you to another source for help and support.

Some of the reasons it may not be suitable to supply emergency contraception include:

• Too much time has passed for the medicine to be effective
• You are taking other medicines that interact with emergency contraception
• You have an existing medical condition that means it is not safe to take emergency contraception
• Your last period was irregular in some way

The Emergency contraception pill can be effective up to 5 days (120 hours) after unprotected sex, but it is important to take the pill as soon as possible, as the quicker you take it the more effective it works.
