Plan B Medical Uses
Plan B is an emergency contraceptive pill. Plan B is intended to prevent pregnancy after known or suspected contraceptive failure or unprotected intercourse. Each Plan B tablet contains 0.75 mg of a single active steroid ingredient, levonorgestrel, the same ingredient found in many birth control pills. The difference is that Plan B contains a larger dose of levonorgestrel than the amount found in a single birth control pill. And, unlike many birth control pills, Plan B does not contain any estrogen.

One tablet of Plan B should be taken orally within 72 hours after unprotected intercourse. The second tablet should be taken 12 hours after the first dose. Efficacy is better if Plan B is taken as directed as soon as possible after unprotected intercourse. Plan B can be used at any time during the menstrual cycle.

Interesting Plan B facts

Emergency contraception has been available since the mid 1960s and it is currently available in over 100 countries.
Taken within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse, Plan B can, when used correctly, reduce the risk of pregnancy by 89% after a single act of unprotected sex. Effectiveness declines as the interval between intercourse and the start of treatment increases.
Plan B is currently available by prescription only. However, emergency contraception is currently available in a limited number of pharmacies in six U.S. states (Alaska, California, Hawaii, Maine, New Mexico, and Washington State) without an advance prescription from a physician.
