Plan B® (levonorgestrel) is a type of contraceptive that is used to prevent pregnancy after unprotected sex. This emergency contraceptive is ideal for use in the case of contraceptive failure (when another form of birth control, such as condoms, fails) or to prevent pregnancy after sexual assault. The drug comes in tablet form and is most effective when used as soon as possible within 72 hours of unprotected sex.
