Took Emergency Contraceptive Pill After Unprotected Sex.What Are My Chances Of Getting Pregnant?

I am taking penicillin for possible strep throat- almost done with my 10 days- I take Lo Loestrine Fe regularly but I know penicillin can have some impact on BC... I got the emergency contraceptive "Next Step" after having unprotected sex this weekend (besides the BC)... am I still at risk for getting pregnant?
