What You Should Know About Emergency Contraception
Emergency contraception, such as Plan B, can be effective in preventing pregnancy if taken within 72 hours of unprotected sex or contraceptive failure.
When mistakes happen, emergency contraception is your last chance to take control of your reproductive destiny, so make sure you know how to get it, just in case.
You can get Plan B directly from your pharmacist or get a prescription for it from your doctor. For more information:
- Talk to your doctor
- Call the Action Canada for Sexual Health & Rights bilingual hotline: 1‑888‑642‑2725 (for information about getting emergency contraception in your area)
If you have sex without using effective birth control while still taking ACCUTANE™, stop taking ACCUTANE immediately and call your doctor. Also call your doctor if you have sex without using birth control during the first month after you stop taking ACCUTANE.
