Where can I get EC?

If you are 18 or older, you can get EC from most pharmacies without a prescription.

If you are under 18 or do not have ID, you will need a prescription for EC before you can purchase it from a pharmacy. Specially-trained Massachusetts pharmacists can provide you with access to EC if you do not have a prescription directly from a dcotor.

Be sure to call ahead and see if your pharmacist has the special training necessary to provide you with EC, and if they don’t, click here to find a clinic or pharmacy nearby that does.
