How to Get Ulipristal Online in Florence

Yes, you can get a private medical consultation for Ulipristal (ellaOne) from an EU-licensed doctor online, even if you are in Florence. Hi-Doctor provides a secure, fast, and confidential way to access emergency contraception. For a flat fee of 35 €, an EU-licensed doctor reviews your case, and if appropriate, issues a prescription within 24 hours. The prescription then goes through Italy's own prescription system; the pharmacist reviews it and decides whether to dispense, and may offer a locally-marketed equivalent.

How it works: get your consultation in 4 steps

  1. Fill out the online medical questionnaire (2–3 minutes) and securely pay the 35 € consultation fee.
  2. A licensed EU doctor privately reviews your medical history and specific circumstances. If the doctor determines Ulipristal is not appropriate for you, your fee is refunded automatically — you pay nothing.
  3. If approved, you receive a valid electronic prescription (PDF file) in your secure Hi-Doctor account and by email within 24 hours.
  4. Print the PDF or show it on your phone and present it at a pharmacy in Florence. The prescription goes through Italy's own prescription system; the pharmacist reviews it and decides whether to dispense, and may offer a locally-marketed equivalent.

Who qualifies for treatment

Our EU-licensed doctors assess each case individually to ensure Ulipristal is safe and appropriate for you. They review your medical questionnaire for factors such as:

  • Timing of unprotected intercourse: Ulipristal is effective up to 120 hours (5 days) after unprotected sex.
  • Cycle stage: The doctor considers your menstrual cycle to determine the most effective emergency contraception.
  • Medical history: Conditions like severe asthma, liver problems, or certain medications can affect eligibility.
  • Previous use of emergency contraception: Repeated use within the same cycle may not be suitable.

The doctor's clinical assessment prioritises your health and safety.

What Ulipristal actually does (and doesn't do)

Ulipristal acetate (commonly known as ellaOne) is an emergency contraceptive. It works by delaying or inhibiting ovulation (the release of an egg from the ovary). If ovulation has not yet occurred, Ulipristal can prevent pregnancy. It is effective for up to 120 hours (5 days) after unprotected sexual intercourse.

Ulipristal is not a regular form of contraception and should not be used as such. It does not protect against sexually transmitted infections, nor is it an abortion pill. It is designed to prevent pregnancy, not terminate an existing one.

Need clinical guidance on emergency contraception?

An EU-licensed doctor reviews timing, your medical history and possible interactions and decides which option is appropriate. €35 one-off consultation.

Side effects and when to stop

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

You should seek medical advice if you experience severe abdominal pain, unusual vaginal bleeding, or any symptoms that concern you after taking Ulipristal. Always follow the doctor's instructions and consult a healthcare professional if side effects persist or worsen.
