In Georgia, if you're over 18 years old, you can buy most emergency contraception (the morning after pill) brands without a prescription over the counter. If you're under 18 years old, you can by one brand of emergency contraception (Plan B Step-One) over the counter without a prescription. For other brands, like Next Choice, Next Choice One Dose and My Way, you will need a prescription (if you're under 18 years old). Also, if you want to buy the ella pill, which is currently considered the most effective EC, you'll need a prescription (regardless of age). | |||
