Plan B: Plan B One-Step can reduce your risk of pregnancy by up to 95% if used within 24 hours of sex. If taken within 72 hours it can reduce risk of pregnancy by up to 89%. But you should know that Plan B One-Step is not as effective as regular contraception. Please use protection every time to prevent pregnancy and sexually transmitted disease.
