1. What ellaOne is and what it is used for

ellaOne is an emergency contraceptive

ellaOne is a contraceptive that is designed to prevent pregnancy after unprotected intercourse or if your contraceptive method has failed. For example:

  • if you had unprotected sex;
  • if your or your partner's condom tears, slips or falls, or if you forget to use a condom;
  • if you have not taken your contraceptive pill as recommended.

You should take the tablet as soon as possible after intercourse and no later than 5 days (120 hours).

This is done because sperm can survive in your body for up to 5 days after intercourse.

This medicine is suitable for any woman of childbearing potential, including in adolescence.

You can take the tablet at any time of the menstrual cycle.

ellaOne does not work if you are already pregnant .

If your period is late, there is a possibility that you are pregnant. If your period is late or if you have symptoms of pregnancy (breast pain, morning sickness), you should consult your doctor or other medical professional before taking the tablet.

If you have unprotected sex after taking the pill, you will not be protected from pregnancy.

Unprotected intercourse at any time of the menstrual cycle can lead to pregnancy.

ellaOne should not be used for regular contraception.

If you do not have a regular method of contraception, talk to your doctor or healthcare professional about choosing one that is right for you.

How ellaOne works

ellaOne contains the substance ulipristal acetate, which works by changing the activity of the natural hormone progesterone, which is necessary for ovulation to occur. So this drug works by delaying ovulation. Emergency contraception is not always effective. Out of 100 women who take this medicine, approximately 2 become pregnant.

This medicine is a contraceptive that is used to prevent pregnancy. If you are already pregnant, the medicine will not terminate the pregnancy.

Emergency contraception does not protect against sexually transmitted infections .

Only condoms can protect you from sexually transmitted infections. This medicine will not protect you from HIV infection, nor from other sexually transmitted diseases (eg, chlamydia, genital herpes, genital warts, gonorrhea, hepatitis B, and syphilis). If you have any concerns, consult a medical professional.

There is further information about contraception at the end of this leaflet.

2. What you need to know before you take ellaOne

Do not take ellaOne

  • if you are allergic to ulipristal acetate or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).

Warnings and precautions

Talk to your pharmacist, doctor or other healthcare professional before taking this medicine

  • if your period is late or if you have symptoms of pregnancy (breast pain, morning sickness), as you may already be pregnant (see section "Pregnancy, breast-feeding and fertility");
  • if you suffer from severe asthma;
  • if you suffer from severe liver disease.

For all women, emergency contraception should be used as soon as possible after unprotected intercourse. There is some evidence that this medicine may be less effective with increasing body weight or body mass index (BMI), but these data are limited and inconclusive. Therefore, ellaOne is still recommended for all women, regardless of their body weight or BMI.

You are advised to speak to a healthcare professional if you are concerned about problems related to the use of emergency contraception.

If you become pregnant despite taking this medicine, it is important to see your doctor. For more information, see section "Pregnancy, breastfeeding and fertility"

Other contraceptives and ellaOne

This medicine may temporarily reduce the effectiveness of common hormonal contraceptives, such as birth control pills and patches. If you are currently taking hormonal contraceptives, continue to use them as usual after taking this medicine, but be sure to use condoms with every intercourse until your next period.

Do not take ellaOne with another emergency contraceptive pill that contains levonorgestrel. Taking them together may make this medicine less effective.

Other medicines and ellaOne

Tell your pharmacist, doctor or other healthcare professional if you are taking or have recently taken any other medicines, including those obtained without a prescription or herbal medicines.

Some medicines can make ellaOne less effective. If you have taken any of the medicines listed below in the last 4 weeks, ellaOne may not be suitable for you. Your doctor may prescribe another type of (non-hormonal) emergency contraception, e.g. copper intrauterine device (Cu-IUD):

  • medicines used to treat epilepsy (eg primidone, phenobarbital, phenytoin, fosphenytoin, carbamazepine, oxcarbazepine and barbiturates);
  • medicines to treat tuberculosis (eg rifampicin, rifabutin);
  • HIV treatment (ritonavir, efavirenz, nevirapine);
  • a medicine used to treat fungal infections (griseofulvin);
  • products of plant origin containing St. John's wort ( Hypericum perforatum ).

Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using ellaOne if you are using (or have recently used) any of the medicines listed above.

Pregnancy, lactation and fertility

Pregnancy

If your period is late, before taking this medicine you should tell your pharmacist, doctor or other healthcare professional, or take a pregnancy test to make sure you are not already pregnant (see section "Warnings and precautions" ).

This medicine is a contraceptive that is used to prevent pregnancy. If you are already pregnant, the medicine will not terminate the pregnancy.

If you become pregnant despite using this medicine, there is no evidence that taking it will affect your pregnancy. However, it is important to see your doctor. As with any pregnancy, your doctor may want to determine whether the pregnancy is ectopic. This is especially important if you have severe abdominal pain or bleeding, or if you have had an ectopic pregnancy, fallopian tube surgery or a long-term (chronic) genital infection in the past.

If you become pregnant despite using ellaOne, we encourage you to ask your doctor to register your pregnancy in an official registry. You can also report this information yourself at the web address www.hra-pregnancy-registry.com. Your information will remain confidential - no one will know that this information is about you. Your sharing of information may help future women learn about the safety or risks of ellaOne during pregnancy.

Breastfeeding

If you take this medication while breastfeeding, you should stop breastfeeding for one week after taking this medication. During this time, it is recommended that you use a breast pump to maintain the production of breast milk, but discard the expressed breast milk.

Fertility

This medicine does not affect your future fertility. If you have unprotected sex after taking this medicine, you will not be protected from pregnancy. Therefore, it is important to use condoms until your next period.

If after taking this medicine you wish to start or continue with one of the usual methods of contraception, you may do so, but you must also use condoms until your next period.

Driving and using machines

Some women experience dizziness, drowsiness, blurred vision and/or loss of concentration after taking this medicine (see section 4). If you experience such symptoms, you should not drive or operate machinery.

ellaOne contains lactose

If you have been told by your doctor or other healthcare professional that you have an intolerance to some sugars, tell your pharmacist before taking this medicine.

3. How to take ellaOne

Always take this medicine exactly as described in this leaflet or as your pharmacist, doctor or other healthcare professional has told you. If you are not sure, ask your pharmacist or doctor.

  • If you are taking any of the medicines that can make ellaOne less effective (see section 2, 'What you need to know before you take ellaOne') or if you have taken any of them in the last 4 weeks, ellaOne may be more - little effective for you. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using ellaOne. Your doctor may prescribe another type of (non-hormonal) emergency contraception, e.g. Cu-IUD.

If you vomit after taking ellaOne

If you vomit within 3 hours of taking the tablet, take a second tablet as soon as possible.

If you have intercourse again after taking ellaOne

However, if your period is more than 7 days late, if it is unusually weak or unusually heavy; or if you have developed symptoms of pregnancy, such as abdominal pain, breast tenderness, nausea, or vomiting, you may be pregnant. You should take a pregnancy test right away. If you are pregnant, it is important to see your doctor. (see section "Pregnancy, breast-feeding and fertility")
