Postinor 2 (Generic Levonorgestrel) Product Origin: Hungary
|
Postinor 2 is manufactured by Gideon Richter, Hungary.Postinor-2 is used as a form of emergency contraception (more commonly known as a morning after pill). Postinor-2 contains 750 micrograms of the drug levonorgestrel, and also contains such ingredients as potato starch, gelatin, and talc. Postinor-2 is formulated to function in a manner similar to the female hormone progesterone, allowing for prevention of pregnancy if taken within a reasonable period of time. Generally, it is recommended that Postinor-2 be taken no later than three days after having unprotected sex. However, it has proven to be more effective in cases where the treatment was started closer to the time of the sexual encounter. Postinor-2 is administered in two doses, spaced out at twelve-hour intervals. It is important to note that if regurgitation occurs within two hours of taking the first dose, it is imperative to immediately take the second pill in the series and contact a physician for a replacement. Also, should the second dosage not be administered on time, contact a physician and seek counsel on whether another round of treatment is needed. |
