Levonelle 1500 is an emergency contraceptive that can be used after unprotected sex or where a contraceptive method has failed. This type of contraception is often called the morning after pill.

Levonelle 1500 prevents about 84% of expected pregnancies when it is taken within 72 hours ( 3 days ) of unprotected sex. Levonelle 1500 will not prevent a pregnancy in every instance but the tablet is more effective the sooner it is taken after unprotected sex (it is better to take it within 12 hours rather than delay until the third day).

Levonelle 1500 is though to work by stopping your ovaries from releasing an egg, preventing sperm from fertilizing any egg you may have already released or stopping a fertilised egg from attaching itself to your womb lining. It does not work if you are already pregnant. Levonelle 1500 should only be used in emergencies and not used as a regular form of contraceptive. Levonelle is a prescription-only product.

What is Levonelle 1500 used for?
Emergency contraception within 72 hours of unprotected sex. Levonelle 1500 is commonly known as ‘the morning after pill’. It is used to reduce the chances of becoming pregnant after unprotected sex or failure of a contraceptive method.

How do I take Levonelle 1500? 
There is one tablet to be taken. It should be taken as soon as possible after unprotected sex, preferably within 12 hours and no later than 72 hours after.
The tablet can be taken either with or without food. If you are sick within two hours of taking the tablet, another one should be taken immediately. You should consult your doctor, pharmacist or family planning clinic for advice and to get another tablet.
