Primolut-N with I-pill
I’m taking Primolut-N for 10 days as prescribed by my gynecologist to delay my period for an upcoming event. In case of an emergency, if I need to take an I-Pill, is it safe to take it while I’m on Primolut-N, or would it be advisable to avoid taking them together?

Emergency pills have a high failure rate
You can be pregnant despite taking one
Also emergency pills have many side effects
So it is advisable not to take one irrespective whether you are already taking primolut or not

Combining two hormone medicines like this isn't a decision to make on your own, even for an emergency. Please check with your gynecologist or a pharmacist before taking both together.
Next Steps
Save both medicine names and call your prescribing doctor right away if the emergency situation comes up, rather than deciding by yourself.
Health Tips
Don't stop or skip your planned Primolut-N doses on your own to make room for anything else.
