Hello, Franklin glow

Thank you for posting.

Both tablets of the two-dose pack should be taken within 72 hours. So she should take the remaining pill. These pills are for emergencies and should not be used as a regular form of birth control. Be sure she reads the information that comes with the pills so she knows what to expect.
