About i-Pill Emergency Contraceptive Pill, 1 Tablet


i-Pill Emergency Contraceptive Pill, 1 Tablet belongs to the
class of medications called ‘contraceptives’ primarily used
for birth control and treating dysmenorrhea (irregular and
painful periods). Contraception is a procedure that aims to
prevent pregnancy and is used in family planning.
Dysmenorrhea is irregular and painful, leading to
abdominal pain, digestion problems, fainting, vomiting, and
nausea.

i-Pill Emergency Contraceptive Pill, 1 Tablet is a


combination of three medicines: Levonorgesterol,
Ethinylestradiol, and Ferrous fumarate. i-Pill Emergency
Contraceptive Pill, 1 Tablet works by preventing the release
of an egg from ovaries and making sperm entry difficult to
enter in the uterus to fertilise sperm and egg. In addition to
this, i-Pill Emergency Contraceptive Pill, 1 Tablet prevents
the thickening of the uterus's inner wall, required for an egg
growth in the uterus. Ferrous fumarate is required to make
up for the amount of iron in the women lost during their
menstrual period.

You should take this medicine as prescribed by your


doctor. The common side effects are acne, amenorrhea
(absence of menses), tenderness, pain, or swelling of the
breasts, decrease in the secretion of breast milk after giving
birth, dizziness, oedema (fluid retention), gastrointestinal
symptoms such as abdominal pain, cramps, and bloating,
unwanted hair growth, intolerance to contact lenses,
changes in sexual desire, loss of scalp hair, change in
menstrual flow, dark patches on the skin, mood changes,
nausea, nervousness, vaginal discharge, vomiting, and loss
or gain of appetite. If the side effects are persistent, reach
out to your doctor.

Patients Concern
Disease/Condition Glossary
Contraception: It is a procedure that aims to prevent
pregnancy. A woman can only get pregnant if a man sperm
fertilizes her egg. Contraception aims to prevent this from
happening by keeping egg and sperm apart by stopping egg
production or not letting the uterus wall become thick. As a
result, no fertilization takes place, so contraception is a
safe method for family planning.

Dysmenorrhea: It is irregular and painful periods leading


to abdominal pain/cramps, digestion problems, fainting,
vomiting, nausea. Generally, a menstrual cycle is about 25-
30 days. But in dysmenorrhea, this cycle may be short or
prolonged, leading to excessive pain.
