For how long beyond the approved period can pharmacists recommend emergency contraception?

24 hours

48 hours

72 hours

120 hours

Pharmacists can recommend emergency contraception up to 120 hours (5 days) after unprotected sex. Option A, 24 hours, is too short of a time frame for emergency contraception to be effective. Option B, 48 hours, may work for some types of emergency contraception, but it is always best to use it within 120 hours (5 days) to maximize effectiveness. Option C, 72 hours, is a common time frame for some types of emergency contraception, but it is important to note that pharmacists can recommend it up to 120 hours (5 days). Therefore, option D is the correct answer.
