Emergency Contraception Plaistow Pharmacy Services
When you visit our emergency contraception Barking road pharmacy, you won’t need to wait for a GP appointment. We offer walk-in consultations in our private clinical room. Our trained pharmacists will have a brief, confidential chat with you to ensure the medication is safe and appropriate for your situation.
We provide the two most common types of emergency hormonal contraception: Levonelle and ellaOne.
Levonelle Plaistow
Levonelle in Plaistow is a widely used emergency contraceptive that contains levonorgestrel, a synthetic version of the hormone progesterone. For maximum effectiveness, Levonelle should be taken as soon as possible, ideally within 12 hours, and no later than 72 hours (3 days) after unprotected sex.

We also offer a same day prescription service in Plaistow for the majority of scripts presented in-store, helping you start your recovery or treatment plan right away.
ellaOne Plaistow
ellaOne in Plaistow is often considered a more effective option for many women because it can be taken up to 120 hours (5 days) after unprotected sex. It works by delaying ovulation, even if you are about to release an egg. Our pharmacists will help you determine if ellaOne is the better choice based on how much time has passed since the incident.

Important Things to Know
Emergency contraception is not intended to be used as a regular method of birth control. It does not protect you against sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and it will not end an existing pregnancy. If you are already pregnant, the pill will not work and will not harm the pregnancy.

Frequently Asked Question
How soon do I need to take the morning after pill?
The sooner, the better. While Levonelle works up to 3 days and ellaOne works up to 5 days, their effectiveness decreases as time passes. Visiting our Plaistow pharmacy immediately gives you the best chance of preventing pregnancy.
Are there side effects to the morning after pill?
Most women do not experience serious side effects. Some may feel slightly sick, have a headache, or notice changes to their next period (it may be earlier, later, or more painful than usual). If you vomit within 2-3 hours of taking the pill, you will need to return to the pharmacy for another dose.
Is the consultation confidential?
Yes, 100%. Your privacy is our priority. We handle all requests for emergency contraception in E13 with the utmost discretion. Your information will not be shared with your GP without your explicit consent.
How old do I have to be to get the morning after pill?
Our pharmacists can provide emergency contraception to most women of childbearing age. There are specific clinical guidelines for younger patients, and our team is trained to handle these consultations sensitively and legally.
Can I buy the morning after pill in advance?
Yes. If you are worried about your regular contraception failing in the future (for example, if you are going on holiday), you can speak to our pharmacist about purchasing a dose to keep as a backup.
