If you vomit within two hours after taking the drug, call a healthcare professional to find out if you should repeat the dose.
With Plan B One-Step, you may also have some unexpected bleeding. It should go away by the time of your next period. However, it is possible that Plan B One-Step may cause your next period to be heavier or lighter than usual. It may also come earlier or later than is normal for you. So don't worry. If you don't get your period within three weeks, get a pregnancy test to make sure you're not pregnant.
