Postpill is an over-the-counter single-dose emergency contraceptive (commonly known as the "morning-after pill"). Each pack contains 1 single tablet containing 1.5mg of Levonorgestrel (a synthetic progestin hormone).
It is used as a backup method to prevent unplanned pregnancy following unprotected sexual intercourse, birth control accidents (such as a split condom), or missed daily contraceptive pills.
Postpill works primarily by preventing or delaying ovulation:
Prevents Egg Release: It delays or stops your ovaries from releasing an egg during your menstrual cycle.
Prevents Fertilization: It changes the cervical mucus environment, making it harder for sperm to travel and fertilize an egg.
Not an Abortion Pill: Postpill will not work if you are already pregnant and will not harm or terminate an established pregnancy.
🚨 Time Critical: Take the tablet as soon as possible after unprotected sex—ideally within 12 hours, and no later than 72 hours (3 days). The sooner you take it, the higher the protection rate.
🚨 Re-dosing Warning: If you vomit within 2 hours of swallowing the tablet, you must take another dose immediately, as your body may not have absorbed the medication.
🚨 Emergency Use Only: Postpill is formulated strictly for emergencies. It should not be used as a primary, regular form of contraception because it is less effective than routine options and can disrupt your menstrual cycle.
Dosage: Swallow the 1 single tablet (1.5mg) as soon as possible within 72 hours of unprotected sex.
How to Take: Swallow whole with a glass of water, with or without food.
Timing: Can be taken at any point during your menstrual cycle.
Postpill is safe and well-tolerated. Temporary side effects may include:
Nausea, mild lower abdominal cramps, or fatigue.
Headaches, dizziness, or breast tenderness.
Spotting or light bleeding before your next period.
Your next menstrual period may arrive a few days earlier or later than expected.
Keep the tablet sealed in its original blister pack until ready to use.
Store in a cool, dry place below 30°C, away from direct sunlight and heat.
Keep strictly out of reach of children.
Both contain the active ingredient Levonorgestrel. Postinor-2 usually comes as 2 separate 0.75mg tablets taken 12 hours apart, whereas Postpill is a single 1.5mg tablet taken all at once for easier compliance.
No. Postpill only helps prevent pregnancy. It does not protect against HIV/AIDS or other STIs. Only latex or polyurethane condoms provide STI protection.
If your period is delayed by more than 5 to 7 days, or if you experience unusually light or heavy bleeding, perform a home pregnancy test or consult a healthcare professional.
