Common use
i-Pill is intended for emergency contraceptive use following unprotected sexual intercourse, contraceptive failure (such as condom breakage or missed combined oral contraceptive pills), or in cases of sexual assault. It is not designed for routine contraception and should not replace regular contraceptive methods. It is most effective when taken as soon as possible after the incident, ideally within 72 hours, though some efficacy remains up to 120 hours (5 days) post-intercourse, albeit reduced.
Dosage and direction
Take one tablet (1.5 mg Levonorgestrel) orally as a single dose. It can be taken with or without food. For optimal efficacy, administer at the earliest opportunity following unprotected intercourse, within 72 hours. If vomiting occurs within 3 hours of ingestion, consult a healthcare provider as a repeat dose may be necessary. Do not crush, chew, or split the tablet.
Precautions
- Not intended for routine contraceptive use; consider long-term methods for ongoing protection.
- Does not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs); barrier methods are recommended for STI prevention.
- Efficacy may be reduced in individuals with higher body mass index (BMI); consult a healthcare provider for personalized advice.
- Not recommended for use during an existing pregnancy.
- If menses is delayed beyond one week, or if abnormal bleeding occurs, take a pregnancy test and consult a physician.
- Keep out of reach of children and adolescents without appropriate guidance.
Contraindications
- Known hypersensitivity to Levonorgestrel or any excipients in the formulation.
- Existing pregnancy (as it is not effective and not indicated for termination).
- Severe hepatic impairment.
- Undiagnosed abnormal genital bleeding.
- History of or current arterial disease, severe hypertension, or diabetes with vascular involvement (due to theoretical progestin-related risks, though emergency use is generally considered).
Possible side effects
Common side effects are generally mild and transient, and may include:
- Nausea and vomiting
- Fatigue or dizziness
- Abdominal pain or discomfort
- Headache
- Breast tenderness
- Irregular bleeding or spotting before next menstrual period
- Delay of expected menses by a few days
Less common effects may include:
- Diarrhea
- Acne or skin reactions
- Mood changes
If severe or persistent side effects occur, seek medical attention.
Drug interaction
Levonorgestrel metabolism may be affected by certain medications, potentially reducing efficacy. Use with caution or avoid concomitant use with:
- Enzyme-inducing drugs such as rifampicin, carbamazepine, phenytoin, St. John’s Wort, and some antiretroviral therapies
- Broad-spectrum antibiotics (e.g., griseofulvin)
- Modafinil
Consult a healthcare provider or pharmacist if you are taking any other medications.
Missed dose
As i-Pill is a single-dose regimen, the concept of a “missed dose” does not apply. It is designed for one-time use per incident of unprotected intercourse. If a second episode of unprotected sex occurs after taking i-Pill, another dose may be required—consult a healthcare provider for guidance.
Overdose
There are no known serious consequences of overdose with Levonorgestrel. Symptoms may include nausea, vomiting, and fatigue. No specific antidote exists; provide symptomatic treatment if necessary. Medical attention is advised only if severe symptoms occur.
Storage
Store below 30°C (86°F), in a dry place, protected from light and moisture. Keep the blister pack in the outer carton until use. Do not use after the expiration date printed on the packaging.
