5X Tablet 30 mg contains Ulipristal Acetate, a medication used for emergency contraception to prevent unintended pregnancy after unprotected sexual intercourse or contraceptive failure. It is designed for situations such as a missed birth control pill, a broken condom, or any instance where regular contraceptive protection may not have been effective. This medicine offers women an additional option to reduce the risk of pregnancy when taken within a specific time frame after intercourse.

Ulipristal Acetate belongs to a group of medicines known as selective progesterone receptor modulators (SPRMs). It works by delaying or inhibiting ovulation—the process where the ovary releases an egg. By preventing the egg from being released, fertilization by sperm cannot occur. In addition, the medication may alter the uterine lining, which further reduces the likelihood of pregnancy. Because of this mechanism, the tablet can remain effective even when taken closer to ovulation compared to some other emergency contraceptive pills.

One of the important advantages of Ulipristal Acetate is its extended window of effectiveness. The tablet can be taken up to 120 hours (5 days) after unprotected intercourse. However, for the best results it should be taken as soon as possible. The earlier the tablet is taken, the higher the chances of preventing pregnancy.

5X Tablet 30 mg is intended for occasional emergency use only and should not replace regular methods of contraception such as oral contraceptive pills, intrauterine devices, or barrier methods. It also does not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Women who require frequent contraception should consult a healthcare provider to choose a suitable long-term birth control method.
