2,000+ bought last month
OVERPRICED.
This is an emergency contraceptive pill that comes in a pack of six. Each tablet contains levonorgestrel, a hormone that works by stopping or delaying ovulation to reduce the chance of pregnancy after unprotected sex or if your regular birth control fails. You take one tablet as soon as possible after unprotected intercourse, ideally within 72 hours, for the best chance of effectiveness.

The read
What's actually worth knowing.
- This is meant for emergencies only, not as your regular birth control method.
- It needs to be taken within 72 hours of unprotected sex to work, so timing matters.
- It does not protect against sexually transmitted infections, so it's not a substitute for safer sex practices.
As of Aug 19, the Xiromed Emergency Contraceptive Pill for Women is overpriced at $31.70 — versus a $29.73 typical price and a $18.50 12-month low, based on Amazon's own price history.
