Emkit-DS is a high-dose, single-administration emergency contraceptive pill designed to prevent pregnancy following unprotected sexual intercourse or the failure of a regular contraceptive method.1 It contains a higher concentration of Levonorgestrel than the standard formulation to allow for a single-tablet regimen.
Active Ingredient: Levonorgestrel (1.5 mg).2
Pharmacologic Class: Progestin.3
Primary Indication: Emergency contraception to be used within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse.4
Mechanism of Action: Inhibits ovulation by suppressing the mid-cycle surge of gonadotropins; it may also alter the endometrium to prevent implantation.
Administration: A single 1.5 mg tablet taken orally as soon as possible after exposure.
Professional Note: Emkit-DS is most effective when taken within the first 24 hours. It is not an abortifacient and will not interrupt an established pregnancy.
