No your patient does not need a prescription. As an over-the-counter emergency contraceptive a prescription is not needed.

EContra One-Step® contains 1.5 mg of levonorgestrel.

EContra One-Step® acts as an emergency contraceptive by primarily inhibiting ovulation, the release of an egg from the ovary. This window of effectiveness is crucial, with EContra One-Step® being most successful when taken within 72 hours of unprotected sex. It serves as a backup method in situations where regular birth control fails or isn’t used, and while containing a higher dose of levonorgestrel than birth control pills, it functions similarly to prevent pregnancy.

Time is key with EContra One-Step®. The sooner it’s taken after unprotected sex or birth control failure (within 72 hours, or 3 days), the more effective it is at preventing pregnancy. Studies show that if taken correctly, EContra One-Step® can significantly reduce chances of getting pregnant. In fact, it’s estimated that about 7 out of 8 women who would have become pregnant won’t get pregnant if they use EContra One-Step® as directed.
