A member asked:
Hello, if i have vomited after taking the plan-b one step pill 8 hours ago, should i repeat the dose?

No: 8 hours was plenty of time to absorb the dose. Repeating it would only tend to aggravate the nausea without providing any additional protection. Plan b is better than nothing but is no substitute for using adequate birth control in the first place.

No: After 8 hours the pill should not be in the stomach.
