I took a morning after pill that has two tablets. I was supposed to take the second pill 12 hrs later but I lost track of time and took it 48 minutes late. Am I still okay? Can I take another morning after pill?

Don't take another morning after pill. You should be ok, or at least the percentage chance of concieving a child should be about the same.

person12345 agony aunt48 minutes probably won't make a difference. It's a medical pill, it doesn't have a watch. It's not sitting in there staring at a clock, oops three minutes have gone by. I'm fairly sure as long as it's within about 3 hours of the 12 hours you'll be fine. No pregnancy prevention here! Call the pharmacy and ask their advice. I'm 99% sure you're fine. You were within the hour of the 12 hours, which is about as good as you could hope to do. Relax, breathe. You've done good :)

48 minutes shouldn't make that much difference.

But if in doubt go back to the place you got the pill from and get their advice.

Is their nothing in the leaflet about this?

Good Luck!! xx
