In my area, pharmacies are open 7 days a week, so you can get it first thing the next morning without necessarily needing to keep it on hand.
This drug is 2 pills to be taken 12 hours apart, as soon as possible after the incident and no more than 3 days after the "oops" occurred. It does not do anything if you are already pregnant.
Cost: about $50 in my area.
Plan BŪ One-Step: Home |
Are the costs similar in the UK? I feel that a lot of young ladies would be struggling for that sort of money.
