Emergency Contraception in Harrow

If you’ve had unprotected sex or contraceptive failure, emergency contraception (also known as the morning after pill) can help prevent pregnancy, but time matters.

At Murrays Chemist on Kenton Road, we offer both NHS-funded and private emergency contraception in a calm, confidential setting, no appointment needed.

Why Choose Murrays Chemist for Emergency Contraception?

Whether it’s your first time or you’ve used emergency contraception before, we provide expert guidance on what’s best for you and what to do next.

When Should You Take It?

Emergency contraception is most effective the sooner it’s taken, ideally within 24 hours, but certain pills work up to 3 or 5 days after intercourse depending on type.

Not sure which one you need? Our pharmacist will explain your options and check for any medicine interactions or health concerns.
