The Morning After Pill

The 'morning after pill' is an effective tablet that can be taken the day after unprotected sex, to prevent pregnancy. In fact the term is slightly misleading. Morning after pills, or emergency contraceptives, is designed to work for longer than 24 hours. Levonelle, one of the most popular emergency contraceptive drugs, remains effective for up to 72 hours after sex. The most recent addition the emergency contraceptive technology, ellaOne, works for up to five days.

While emergency contraceptives work for up to five days after sex, the name morning after pill still seems appropriate when you bear in mind that the effectiveness of emergency contraceptives declines after 24 hours. Levonelle for example is 95% effective within a day of sex but only 58% after three days. EllaOne also works best within the first couple of days.
