A member asked:
Since there is a weight restriction on plan b can i double the dose to prevent unwanted pregnancy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
PlanB: Plan B might not work well for a patient with weight more than 165 lbs. Higher dose might still not work well and cause more nausea. You should consult your physician to discuss other options like Copper IUD or Ulipristal. Good luck
