What Are The Side Effects Of Morning After Pills?

After driking lots if red wine the other night, my tongue started feeling irritated on the last glass and it actually burned when i tried drinking a little more. Is this something caused by the wine or something else? Its been 3 days and it still feels irritated but now only towards the tip of it with a numbness sensation.

Drugs have their effects at the location they are present. The morning after pill is unlikely to have effects on the tongue. It would not be able to discriminate between the front and the back of the tongue. Red wine on the other hand has direct effects when it hits the tongue. The tannins in the wine (from the oak barrels it is made in) directly tan the tongue where it has direct contact. This gives a feeling of being tanned/insensitive/numb which lasts until the skin/tongue/nerve grow back (hours to a few days).
