Take Action-pill effectiveness?? 🆘

Question

I was wondering if anyone had thoughts on the generic form of Plan B? (Take Action)--see picture below.
The condom broke recently. We went to the store and they were out of the name brand plan B. This is the generic. It has the same ingredients as normal plan b, so I went ahead and bought it. 
I took the pill, but afterwards we were looking up the reviews. They have horrible reviews. So many women have reported getting pregnant after taking this. 
I was at peak ovulation when the condom broke. Does anyone have any experience with this pill? Any guidance would be appreciated.

Answer

It's the same thing

Answer

Those people got pregnant because they had already ovulated. Plan B, and pills like it, only work to stop ovulation. It does nothing to stop sperm and cannot do anything about an egg already released.

Answer

In my experience, it was as effective as the brand name plan b. If you were already ovulating though, yes, there is absolutely a chance it won't work because it can't halt ovulation already in effect. I got pregnant (with actual plan b) because I took it already ovulating. Took a nurse to explain to me that it works like 25% less in that instance. Got nothing to do with the effectiveness of the pill overall, effectiveness just decreases significantly if you're already ovulating because of the way the pill works.
