Message definition (Australia)
As reported by the Conversation: "If a woman had unprotected sex outside of this timeframe, a pharmacist can still supply the emergency contraceptive pill. This supply is called 'off label' as it is outside of the TGA-licensed use. In such cases, pharmacists should inform women about the effectiveness of this emergency contraception beyond three days and document that they supplied it. (Or they could recommend the woman have an intrauterine device (IUD) placed instead. This IUD is the most effective form of emergency contraception and can be inserted up to five days after unprotected sex.)"<ref>[https://theconversation.com/note-to-pharmacists-on-how-not-to-sell-the-morning-after-pill-10250 Note to pharmacists on how not to sell the morning-after pill]</ref>
