Get EC in your Local Pharmacy

For consumers 17 and older with proof of age, EC is available in pharmacies! Read more.

EC is a safe and effective way to prevent pregnancy — even after sex! Use EC if:

  • Your contraception didn’t work
  • You had unprotected sex
  • You were forced to have sex

In 9 states (AK, CA, HI, ME, MA, NH, NM, WA, and VT) without a doctor’s prescription.

You don’t need to visit your doctor/clinic first.

Youth Friendly Pharmacies

The Youth-Friendly Pharmacy Initiative (YFPI) works to make pharmacies more accessible to teens. 

It's easy and convenient to go to your local pharmacy to:

  • Buy EC, condoms, lube or pregnancy tests or other related products
  • Talk with the pharmacist about preventing sexually transmitted infections (STIs)
  • Get information and referrals for other sexual and reproductive health services
  • Improve your sexual and reproductive health

Find a Youth-Friendly Pharmacy near you.
