Hi Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern...
No taking Unwanted 72 twice in a day is not recommended after having unsafe sex. The previous taken unwanted 72 should be able to prevent pregnancy
Actually unwanted 72 is a emergency contraceptive pill & it should be used just in case of emergency. One should never use them as regular method of contraception.
Use condoms or regular contraceptive pills to prevent pregnancy in future. Taking more emergency contraceptive pills can cause serious problems like irregular periods, ectopic pregnancy, ovarian hyper-stimulation syndrome & even infertility.

Hope this information helps
