Brief Answer:
Nothing at present.

Detailed Answer:
There are medications such as I pill ( emergency contraceptive ) but they are taken within 72 hours maximum, of unprotected sex.
Since you had protected sex, and it is already 5 days since it happened, there is no medication right now to prevent a pregnancy.
Take care.
