Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Trisprintec pills is not recommended as an emergency pill even though it can serve the purpose to an extent. Trisprintec has got high failure rate when compared to planB and we do not recommend that you use these pills for emergency contraception unless they are the only pills available.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
