Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

It generally protects you for period of 48 hours. I’m case of further contact you have to take the tablet again. In your case, you are safe and pregnancy is very much unlikely.

Wishing you good health.

Thanks.
