Hi and thanks for the query,
Plan B pills are generally very safe. The main side effect reported by most persons who take them is nausea and vomiting. Mild abdominal pain can also be observed but the effects are generally very short lived. They are effective especially when taken soonest after a risky sexual behavior. After 72 hours, the effectiveness becomes low.
