Question about Plan B?!


Question: I have taken plan b before, and was wondering what is the correct way to take the two pills. The actual manufacturers directions are to take the first pill, and then take the second 12 hours later.... but both times I have gotten it from planned parenthood conters, they had advised me that it has the same effectiveness if both taken at the same time, and recommend doing that.

my question is, does anyone know why they would recommend that? is one way more effective than the other?

Both will work. Waiting the 12 hours will cut down on the side effects. Your best bet is to call a pharmacist.

Ignore the ignorant rantings of others.............if they don't agree with your taking it, they need to skip your question!

I would think that tspacing the two out between 12 hours would cut down on the unpleasant side effects of it. They probnably advised you to do both at the same time so you couldn't forget to take the second one later.

I don't know about the effectiveness but i urge you stop having unprotected sex, you could be aborting alot of babies who have done nothing to deserve being killed, it could also hurt your chances of concieving in the future.

CUSTOMER IS THE PROFIT
every thing else is over head

.its called plan B for a reason.....its second, a back up plan....you should have a "plan A" such as birth control or at least use condoms....or better yet abstinence

I would always trust a manufacturers directions. They must say that for a reason-maybe just to cut down on unpleasant side effects.

i would think because a 12 hour gap might be to long of a wait and maybe it a part of their job to tell you to take both the pills in case you forget to 12 hours later!
