ellaOne is a new emergency contraceptive that can prevent against pregnancy for up to 5 days (120 hours) after sex. It’s thought to be 98% effective at preventing pregnancy, because only 2 in every 100 women who took the medication became pregnant during clinical trials. Although effective for longer than Levonelle, it is still more effective the sooner you take it.
ellaOne is available in a 30mg tablet and is suitable for you to use if you have had unprotected sex or if your regular contraceptive has not worked. An ellaOne 30mg tablet works for much longer than the standard morning after pill, Levonelle, which protects against pregnancy for up to 3 days (72 hours) after unprotected sexual intercourse. Clinical trials have also proven ellaOne to be more successful at preventing pregnancy than Levonelle; during the first 72 hours after unprotected intercourse, significantly fewer women became pregnant after taking ellaOne than those who took Levonelle.
ellaOne works by altering the activity of the body’s natural hormone progesterone, which can stop your ovaries from releasing an egg and prevent pregnancy. ellOne contains the active ingredients ulipristal acetate; this works in a similar way to levonorgestral, the active ingredient in Levonelle. Levonorgestral interferes with ovulation during the early stages of the egg’s development, while ulipristal will delay the release of the egg from the ovary.
To buy ellaOne 30mg online, you will need to obtain a valid prescription, which you can obtain by completing an online consultation. The confidential consultation form will include questions about your medical details. Your answers will be looked over by one of our team of EU registered doctors. If you are approved to buy ellaOne 30mg, they will issue you prescription. Your medication will then be dispatched for overnight delivery from our pharmacy.
You are suitable to buy ellaOne if you are over 18 years of age and have had unprotected sex or experienced contraceptive failure. You should only buy ellaOne 30mg as an emergency contraceptive; it should not be used regularly. You should still use a regular method of contraception after taking ellaOne.
If you are breastfeeding, you should wait 36 hours after you take this emergency contraceptive before you breast feed again. Certain medications can make it less effective; these include epilepsy, HIV and bacterial infection medications, as well as some herbal medications containing St John’s Wort. ellaOne will not work if you are already pregnant.
ellaOne causes most women only a few side effects. You might experience nausea after taking it, as well as mild bouts of dizziness, drowsiness, blurred vision and difficulty concentrating.
You should take a single 30mg ellaOne tablet no later than 5 days (120 hours) after you have had unprotected sex. It is suitable to take at any point during your menstrual cycle, and you can take it with or without food. If you vomit in less than 3 hours after taking ellaOne 30mg, then you should contact your doctor.
If you are already taking birth control pills, you should continue to take them as normal. You can only take 1 ellaOne 30mg tablet during each menstrual cycle, which is why we advise using a condom until you reach your next period to absolutely minimise the risk of contraceptive failure.
If you want to buy ellaOne online, you will need to complete one of our online consultations. The consultation form will include a number of medical questions and is treated as strictly confidential.
