Uses of Emkit 0.7mg Tablet

Emkit 0.7mg Tablet emergency contraceptive tablets are used to reduce the chance of pregnancy after unprotected sex or when a contraceptive method has failed, such as a split condom or missed pills.

Levonorgestrel is also found in many regular birth control pills and in hormonal coils, which are also used for heavy periods.

How Emkit 0.7mg Tablet works

Levonorgestrel is a man-made form of the hormone progesterone. As emergency contraception it mainly works by delaying or preventing the release of an egg from the ovary. It will not end a pregnancy that has already started.

Possible side effects

After taking Emkit 0.7mg Tablet, some women experience:

• Nausea
• Changes in the timing of the next period
• Headache
• Breast tenderness
• Lower abdominal pain
• Tiredness or dizziness

See a doctor urgently for severe lower abdominal pain, especially on one side, as this could be a sign of an ectopic pregnancy. Do a pregnancy test if your period is more than a week late or unusually light.

Precautions and warnings

• Emergency contraception is not a substitute for regular contraception, so speak to a pharmacist or doctor about an ongoing method.

• If you vomit soon after taking it, contact a pharmacist or doctor, as you may need another dose.
