Morning after Pill is now considered safe

Released on = November 15, 2006, 11:33 pm

Press Release Author = Olivia Andrews

Industry = Pharmaceuticals

Press Release Summary = Emergency contraceptive pill or morning after pill is found
to be safe and effective to avoid unwanted pregnancy after having unprotected sex.

Press Release Body = Its proper name is \"Plan B,\" but most call it \"the morning
after pill.\"
No matter what you call it, the pill is one of the most controversial prescriptions
to ever come out of a pharmacy.

The FDA calls the pill an emergency contraceptive. It\'s a method of preventing
pregnancy up to 72 hours after sex.

The morning after pill – a form of emergency birth control is a method to prevent a
woman from becoming pregnant after having an unprotected vaginal intercourse. These
pills are quite safe but many women know about their existence.

Plan B or morning after pill contains high doses of the hormones as found in the
oral contraceptive pills. This much-debated morning after pill is also approved for
over counter sales to adults 18 years old and older back in August.

According to sources, Plan B will be sold in two pill packets that come generally in
between $40 and $ 45. The pill, Plan B, reduces the risk of pregnancy after
unprotected sex by 89 percent. It initially was available by prescription only, but
this limited its effectiveness -- the longer after sex the pill is taken, the less
effective it becomes.

There are nearly 3 million unintended pregnancies in the United States each year. On
average, a woman has an 8 percent chance of getting pregnant after a single act of
unprotected intercourse. Plan B reduces this chance to 1 percent.

Plan B is available to women 18 years and older without a prescription at most
pharmacies. Women must show proof of age to purchase Plan B. For women 17 years old
and younger, Plan B is available with a doctor\'s prescription.
