Is It Appropriate To Take Postinor After Vomiting Post Intercourse?

Hi, we just had an unprotected sex last night around 1am. Ive been researching about postinor 2, we planned to get 1 ASAP because the sooner, the better right. So my question, what if after the second pill has been taken, and she vomit later. Should she take another pill? What if she keeps vomiting? When should she stop taking the postinor 2? After finished taking 2 tablets? Thx!

Greetings of the day

If the vomiting occurs 2 hours after intake of drug, there is no cause for concern as the drug would have already been absorbed into circulation and will be effective.
Repeatation of dosage is required if the vomiting occurs less than 2 hours after intake.




In case you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you.

Wishing you happy and healthy life

Take Care
