More Information

levonelle

Levonelle One Step operates by halting ovulation, preventing the release of an egg, and impeding sperm from fertilizing any already released egg. Its efficacy in preventing pregnancy is contingent on timely ingestion within 72 hours post-unprotected intercourse, ineffective if pregnancy has already occurred. Subsequent unprotected intercourse following its administration does not negate the risk of pregnancy. Notably, it’s not intended for use before menarche, or for women under 16 years old.

If any of the following conditions apply to you, it’s important to consult your doctor before considering Levonelle One Step as emergency contraception may not be appropriate. In such cases, your doctor may recommend an alternative form of  emergency contraception. If you suspect you’re pregnant or are already pregnant, Levonelle One Step will not be effective as it cannot terminate an existing pregnancy. It’s crucial to note that Levonelle One Step is not intended as an “abortion pill.” Signs that you may already be pregnant include a delay in your period of more than 5 days or experiencing unusual bleeding around the time your next period is due, as well as engaging in unprotected intercourse more than 72 hours prior and since your last menstrual cycle.

Inform your doctor or pharmacist about any medications you are currently taking, have recently taken, or might take. Certain medications can potentially interfere with the effectiveness of Levonelle One Step. If you have used any of the listed medications within the past 4 weeks, Levonelle One Step may be less suitable for you, and your doctor might recommend an alternative emergency contraceptive, such as a copper intrauterine device (Cu-IUD), if feasible. Seek guidance from your pharmacist or doctor regarding the appropriate dosage for your situation. Additionally, after taking the tablets, promptly consult your doctor for further advice on reliable regular contraception and to rule out pregnancy. Furthermore, be aware that Levonelle One Step may impact the effectiveness of other medications, such as ciclosporin, which suppresses the immune system. For full details refer to the Patient Information Leaflet.

Like all medications, Levonelle One Step can potentially induce side effects, although not everyone experiences them. Common side effects, affecting more than 1 in 10 individuals, include nausea, irregular bleeding until the next period, lower abdominal pain, tiredness, and headaches. Additionally, vomiting is a common side effect, and if experienced, refer to the relevant section for guidance. Changes in menstrual patterns, such as periods occurring earlier or later than expected or experiencing irregular bleeding or spotting until the next period, can occur in some cases. If menstrual irregularities persist beyond 5 days or exhibit unusual characteristics (e.g., unusually light or heavy), it’s advisable to consult a doctor promptly. Other common side effects encompass tender breasts, diarrhoea, and dizziness post-medication intake. Rarely, occurring in up to 1 in 10,000 individuals, side effects may include abdominal pain, rash, urticaria, pruritus, facial swelling, pelvic pain, and painful periods. For more details refer to the Patient Information Leaflet.
