Hi You can take it within 72 hrs of unprotected intercourse. If you vomit it, you need to take it as it is high dose of hormones and that has to be reached for preventing pregnancy.

Yes, if you vomit within 3 hrs and the pill appears to have come out, please take a second pill immediately. Both pills should have been taken within 72 hrs of unprotected sex. No more pills. Do a pregnancy test (blood) after 7 days to rule out pregnancy.
