Who qualifies for treatment

The doctor reviews your individual case to ensure Ulipristal is safe and appropriate for you. They will assess factors such as:

  • The timing of unprotected intercourse: Ulipristal is effective within 120 hours (5 days) of unprotected sex.
  • Your medical history: Conditions like severe asthma, liver problems, or use of certain medications (e.g., antiepileptics, St. John's Wort) may affect suitability.
  • Current medications: Potential interactions with other drugs you are taking.
  • Allergies to any components of Ulipristal.

The doctor's primary concern is your safety and the effectiveness of the treatment.

What Ulipristal actually does (and doesn't do)

Ulipristal acetate (often known as ellaOne) is an emergency contraceptive pill. It works primarily by delaying or inhibiting ovulation. This prevents the release of an egg, thus preventing fertilisation if unprotected intercourse has occurred.

  • Effective window: Ulipristal is effective for up to 120 hours (5 days) after unprotected sex, making it a longer-acting option than levonorgestrel (which is effective up to 72 hours).
  • Not an abortion pill: It does not work if you are already pregnant and will not harm an existing pregnancy.
  • Not regular contraception: Ulipristal is for emergency use only and does not protect against future unprotected sex. It also does not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs).

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Ulipristal can cause side effects, though not everyone experiences them. Common side effects may include headache, stomach pain, nausea, and menstrual disturbances (e.g., changes in the timing or flow of your next period). These are usually mild and temporary.

You should seek immediate medical advice if you experience:

  • Severe abdominal pain, especially if it persists.
  • Unusual or prolonged vaginal bleeding.
  • Symptoms of an allergic reaction, such as rash, itching, swelling, or dizziness.

If you vomit within three hours of taking Ulipristal, you should contact your doctor as you may need to take another dose.
