I've used Plan B twice and had NO sickness, stomachache or side effects. I think it can vary, just like everything else, but MOST people do not feel any side effects. Some probably feel a little, some feel more. Some exagerate what they feel. My husband gets a stomachache if he takes a vitamin pill on an empty stomach; we each have a different tolerance for different vitamins and medications.
But do not believe these people who say the Plan B pill makes you sick for days. False.
The second time I took it, they'd made special packaging for the "morning after" aspect of the pill, and it was packaged with 2 pills, one for right away and one for 12 hours later.
The first time I took it years earlier, they hadn't starting marketing it seperately for it's "morning after" effects, it was still mostly used as a regular birth control pill. So, the pharmacist just gave me a regular 30-day pack of that pill (don't remember the brand name) and I was instructed to take 2 pills right away, 2 more 12 hours later and throw the rest of the pack away.
Leave it to the antis to create false scare tactics and mystify something as new and scary that has actually been in use comfortably for years.
