A member asked:
I took a plan b pill last night and some of the pill dissolved or melted in my mouth and i swallowed the rest. is the pill still effective & work?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: From what you described you took the whole pill. Plan B is effective in more than 95% of instances, if taken within 24 hours of sex. If you do not wish to be pregnant, use contraception all the time, every time. You may consider implanted contraceptive, or IUD. Practice safe sex. Get HPV vaccine.
