- We sell Opill as $20 for 1 pack (1-month supply) or $50 for 3 packs (3-months supply).
- Most insurance companies do not cover over the counter medications, so you will have to pay out of pocket.
- If you have a Health Savings Account, you can use that to pay for your pills.
- If you would like to use your insurance to cover the cost of your birth control, you can make an appointment with us in the office or on telehealth to discuss your birth control options and obtain a prescription.
- If you do not have insurance and are worried about the cost of Opill, our team at Planned Parenthood can help you see if you qualify for programs that might be able to cover the cost of birth control counseling and prescriptions.

What to know about Opill
Birth control is not one-size-fits-all. There are many types of birth control available, and everyone responds to each type differently. The more safe, effective birth control options available, the better. Decades of contraceptive research worldwide have established oral contraceptives as safe and effective at preventing pregnancy. In July 2023, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved Opill for over-the-counter (OTC) use for people of all ages, based on strong scientific evidence of its safety.
Opill is the brand name for norgestrel tablets, a progestin-only birth control.
It is over the counter, so it can be purchased by anyone of any age without a prescription.
When used as directed, Opill is safe for most people, and is the most effective over-the-counter birth control method. It is important to review the package insert or consult with your health care provider to ensure this medication is safe for you.
You can start it on any day. It takes 2 days (48 hours) to become fully effective. It is very important to take it at the same time every day.
Options for Paying for Opill
Affordability is relative. So no matter the exact dollar amount, the cost of OTC birth control may be too high. At PPSNE health centers everyone can access care regardless of their ability to pay.
