The active ingredient in ellaOne is ulipristal acetate. Each tablet contains 30 milligrams of ulipristal acetate. This is what postpones ovulation.

The other ingredients in ellaOne are lactose monohydrate, povidone, croscarmellose sodium and magnesium stearate.
 

ellaOne is a single pill that should be swallowed with water. You can take ellaOne at any time of day or night. If you vomit within three hours of taking ellaOne, you should contact your pharmacist or GP as you may need to take another pill.
Despite the nickname ‘morning after pill’, you can use ellaOne at any time of day or night, and it can still be effective for up to 5 days (120 hours) after unprotected sex.

ellaOne is most effective when taken within the first 24 hours after unprotected sex has taken place. ellaOne can be taken at any time of the menstrual cycle, but if you have ovulated then it may not be effective – however, this is very difficult to predict, so speak to your pharmacist who will be able to advise you further.
