Medicine pack check sheet

Source-linked reading points

• Each tablet contains levonorgestrel 1.5 mg; NDC 69536-162-88 has one blister and one tablet per carton. The tablet is white to off-white, round, marked G00 and unscored. Neither the unscored tablet nor single-tablet pack permits self-splitting, dose alteration or divided use.
• The cited U.S. Drug Facts says to use as soon as possible within 72 hours after unprotected sex or contraceptive failure and to contact a healthcare professional if vomiting occurs within two hours. This page reports that exact U.S. label only and cannot extend it to another product, market or individual circumstance; time-sensitive uncertainty requires prompt contact with a pharmacist, clinician or local reproductive-health service.
• The label states that it is not regular birth control and does not protect against HIV/AIDS or other sexually transmitted infections. ‘Emergency contraception’ must not be read as ending an existing pregnancy, regular contraception, infection protection or an effectiveness guarantee.
• Efavirenz, rifampin or certain seizure medicines may reduce effectiveness, and the label says to ask a doctor or pharmacist first. Review prescriptions, OTC products, herbals, actual packs and the complete medicine list together; a shared ingredient, matching 1.5 mg amount or another OTC brand does not prove self-substitutability.
