Ulipristal Acetate VIATRIS 30 mg is an emergency contraceptive designed to prevent pregnancy after unprotected intercourse or in the event of contraceptive failure. Whether you've forgotten your pill, your condom has slipped or even torn, this tablet acts as a quick fix to prevent pregnancy. By modifying the activity of progesterone, the hormone responsible for ovulation, Ulipristal Acetate delays ovulation, reducing the risk of fertilization.
Ulipristal Acetate is suitable for all women of childbearing age, including adolescents. However, it is crucial to note that it does not work if you are already pregnant, and is not designed for regular contraceptive use. Used as soon as possible after unprotected intercourse (within a maximum of 5 days), this product provides effective protection.
Ulipristal Acetate VIATRIS does not prevent pregnancy if further unprotected intercourse occurs after use. This emergency contraceptive Ulipristal Acetate VIATRIS 30 mg stands out for its rapid efficacy and ease of use. By acting directly onovulation, it offers a reliable response to women seeking to avoid pregnancy after unprotected intercourse or failure of their contraceptive method. Ulipristal Acetate is part of a one-off contraceptive prevention strategy, with no impact on future fertility. What's more, its use remains simple and accessible, adapting to the needs of every woman whatever the time of her menstrual cycle. This product meets a crucial need for security, providing temporary but effective control to prevent an unplanned pregnancy.

How do I take the morning-after pill?
For optimum effectiveness, take Ulipristal Acetate VIATRIS 30 mg as soon as possible after unprotected sexual intercourse, and within 5 days (120 hours) at the latest. This single tablet is taken orally, at any time of the menstrual cycle or day, with or without a meal.
If vomiting occurs within 3 hours of taking the tablet, take another tablet as soon as possible to ensure its effectiveness. However, if your period is more than a week late or presents unusual signs (abdominal pain, breast tension, nausea), a pregnancy test is recommended to rule out any suspicion of pregnancy.
