Side Effects

Postinor-2 0.75mg Tablet may cause side effects in some people. These reactions can vary between individuals and may affect digestion, energy levels, or the menstrual cycle. Most symptoms are temporary, although persistent or concerning changes should be discussed with a healthcare professional.

Nausea or Vomiting

Nausea may occur after taking the tablet, and some people may occasionally experience vomiting.

Lower Abdominal Pain

Mild abdominal discomfort or cramping may occur following treatment.

Fatigue or Tiredness

Some people may feel unusually tired or experience reduced energy.

Headache

Headaches may develop after taking the medication.

Breast Tenderness

The breasts may feel sensitive, sore, or uncomfortable for a short period.

Dizziness

Dizziness or a light-headed feeling may occur in some individuals.

Changes to Your Menstrual Period

Changes in Period Timing or Flow

Your menstrual period may differ from your usual schedule or bleeding pattern.

Irregular Spotting

Light or irregular spotting may occur before your next menstrual period.

When to Seek Medical Advice

Seek medical assessment if you experience severe or persistent lower abdominal pain or unusually heavy bleeding. If your next menstrual period is more than 5 days late, take a pregnancy test and consult a healthcare professional.

This information does not replace the product leaflet or advice from a healthcare professional. Consult a doctor or pharmacist if symptoms persist, worsen, or cause concern.

Contraindications

  • Known hypersensitivity to levonorgestrel or any other ingredient in the tablet
  • Known or suspected existing pregnancy (it will not terminate an existing pregnancy)
  • Severe liver disease
  • Not intended for use as a regular ongoing method of contraception
  • Does not protect against sexually transmitted infections

Drug / Food Interactions

  • Certain enzyme-inducing medicines, such as some anti-epileptic drugs, rifampicin, and the herbal supplement St John’s Wort, may reduce the effectiveness of levonorgestrel
  • Taking this tablet may temporarily affect the reliability of hormonal contraceptives used afterward in the same cycle, so barrier protection such as condoms is recommended until your next period
  • Vomiting or severe diarrhoea within a few hours of taking a dose may reduce absorption, and a replacement dose may be needed – seek pharmacist advice if this happens

Quick Tips

  • Take the first tablet as soon as possible after unprotected intercourse – do not wait, as effectiveness reduces with delay
  • Set a reminder to take the second tablet exactly 12 hours after the first
  • Use condoms for the rest of your cycle, as this medicine does not provide ongoing contraceptive protection
  • See a doctor if your next period is more than seven days late, unusually light, or if you have concerns about pregnancy
  • Speak to a pharmacist about starting or continuing a regular contraceptive method to avoid relying on emergency contraception
  • Remember that Postinor-2 does not protect against sexually transmitted infections
