Brief Answer:
can be used as EC pill
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your concerns and understand your concerns.
Marvelon can be used as emergency contraceptive.
It has to be taken as 4 tablets twice, at an interval of 12 hours.
The first dose of 4 tablets should be taken within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse.
However, nausea and vomiting are the major side effects.
Therefore, it is better to take levonorgestrel as EC pill.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
