  • Levonelle One Step 1500mcg Tablet

    Levonelle One Step is an emergency contraceptive that can be used within 72 hours (3 days) of unprotected sex or if your usual contraceptive method has failed. Levonelle One Step contains a synthetic hormone like substance called levonorgestrel. It prevents pregnancy in 99% of situations when you take it within 72 hours of having unprotected sex. It will not prevent a pregnancy every time and is more effective if you take it as soon as possible after unprotected sex. It is better to take within 12 hours rather than delay until the third day. Levonelle One Step is thought to work by:
    • Stopping your ovaries from releasing an egg;
    • Preventing sperm from fertilising any egg you may have already released.
    Levonelle One Step can only prevent you becoming pregnancy if you take it within 72 hours of unprotected sex. It does not work if you are already pregnant. If you have unprotected sex after taking Levonelle One Step it will not stop you from becoming pregnant. Levonelle One Step is not indicated for user before the first menstrual bleed (menarche). Levonelle One Step is not recommended for young women under 16 years of age.
