Accepted Answer

We list 22 Levonorgestrel (emergency contraception) products from the NAFDAC Greenbook — Nigeria's official register of approved products — of which 11 have a currently active registration, including 5 combination products that pair Levonorgestrel (emergency contraception) with other ingredients. They are produced by manufacturers including Aquatix Pharmaceuticals, Aurora Pharmaceuticals, Bayer Nigeria, Deep K. Tyagi Foundation Nigeria, JMD Pharmalinks, among others. Combination products, and registrations the Greenbook currently lists as inactive, are clearly marked — Greenbook listings can lag renewals, so always confirm the number printed on the pack. Because it is drawn from the live register, this is far more complete than a typical brand list.
