Available Without A Prescription
Next Choice® is available at your pharmacy without a prescription if you are
17 or older. You must show your pharmacist a valid government issued ID proving
your age. If you are 16 or younger, a prescription is required. Be sure to call
your pharmacy to make sure Next Choice is in stock.
Remember, it should be taken within 3 days of unprotected sex, sexual attack, or
a known or suspected contraceptive failure – and a study shows a greater effect
when taken sooner.1
