Aftera Levonorgestrel Emergency Contraceptive Tablet
1.00 EACH, 0.1 lbs. Item # 966195
Aftera Levonorgestrel is an emergency contraception that is designed to reduce the chances of getting pregnant after unprotected sex or birth control failure. It primarily works by preventing ovulation so fertilization cannot take place if sperm remains present. This product should not be used as a regular form of birth control. It is only intended for emergency use in the event of unprotected sex or a failure of other forms of birth control. Aftera will not provide any protection against sexually transmitted diseases or infections. If you believe you have been exposed to any STD/STI, make sure you speak with your doctor or a CVS pharmacist to help determine what treatment options you have available. You can purchase Aftera at your local CVS Pharmacy or online at CVS.com with options to buy online and pick up in store. It is also available to order online, but keep in mind that it is more effective if you take it as soon as possible after unprotected sex or birth control failure.
