On a romantic trip and had a slip-up? Or wondering where to get the morning after pill near you? Luckily, finding ellaOne® abroad is easier than you might think. With access in many countries, it can help to learn about what your options are if you experience contraceptive failure or unprotected sex.

Finding the morning after pill while away from home depends on your destination. Many local pharmacies or clinics stock ellaOne®, but rules vary. In some places, you can buy it over the counter or order it online. Some countries have age restrictions or other rules, so check ahead to avoid any nasty surprises.

Here’s a handy snapshot of where you can get ellaOne® in some popular travel spots.

ellaOne® helps prevent pregnancy when taken within 120 hours (that’s 5 days) after unprotected sex. The sooner you take it, the more effective it is. It works mainly by delaying ovulation, which helps to give you time to prevent pregnancy. It’s simple to use, and won’t affect your future fertility.

If your local pharmacy abroad doesn’t stock ellaOne®, or getting access feels tricky, don’t worry. In some countries, you can buy ellaOne® online, for delivery to your hotel or a nearby pharmacy. Many countries have 24-hour pharmacies or clinics ready to help. And if all else fails? Contact your local doctor or health service.
