About My Way

My Way is available over the counter (OTC) at the pharmacy counter to women over the age of 17. My Way should be taken within three days (72 hours) of unprotected sex. The sooner it is taken, the better chance it is effective. My Way is not effective for women that are already pregnant. My Way does not protect against sexually transmitted diseases such as HIV. My Way should not be used as a routine birth control, as it is not as effective. If you have severe abdominal pain, you may have an ectopic pregnancy and should get immediate medical help. You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs to the FDA at fda.gov/medwatch or call 1-800-FDA-1088.
