A member asked:

Im on a sertraline because of the anxious disorder, can i take emergency contraception ? nothing bad will happen if i will take it both?

Should be fine: That should not cause you any problem. "emergency contraception" is simply an increased dose of birth control pills.

Yes.: It is safe to take sertraline and emergency contraception. Sertraline is one of a group of medications called ssris. These medications are generally considered safe to use with most types of oral contraception. Emergency contraception - either multiple contraceptive pills or Plan B - must be taken within 72 hours of intercourse to be most effective.
