The longer you wait to take the MA Pill the less effective it becomes. In the first 24 hours, Plan B is highly effective. If taken in the first 72 hours (3 days) it drops to 88% up to 120 hours (5 days) about 50% effective.

HIV exposure should be taken very seriously. If a person knows they have been exposed to HIV they should seek immediate medical attention. It is possible to prescribe a medication regimine after exposure called "PEP"(Post Exposure Prophylaxis). "PEP" must be prescribed within 72 hours of exposure to be effective. "PEP" is not effective if started any later. If more than 72 hours has passed and the exposure results in the individual testing positive for HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus), there are many effective treatments available. Seek the attention of an HIV specialist in your area for more information.
85% of 72 hours:= 85% * 72= 0.85 * 72= 61.2 hours
About 3 days (72 hours) if you've only taken one or two doses on the same day. But it largely depends on how much you've taken and how long you've taken it. If you've taken it for a while, or taken large doses of it, then it will be in your system longer.
72 hours is exactly 3 days. 72 hours later is Wednesday at 9am. 72 hours earlier is Thursday at 9am.
3 days are in 72 hours.
There are 4,320 minutes in 72 hours.
