If you require emergency hormonal contraception (“the morning after pill”) you can obtain this from Speedwell Pharmacy any time during the week without a prescription. Our pharmacist will need to ask you a few questions discretely to ensure that this tablet is suitable for you.

The most commonly used morning after pill is Levonorgestrel 1500mcg (marketed as Levonelle). Recently, ellaOne (containing ulipristal 3mg) has also become available in pharmacies. Our pharmacist can discuss with you which one you may need.
