i-Pill: The Quiet Backup That Lands Within Minutes

Sometimes things don’t go as planned — a condom tears, or you realise too late there wasn’t one. The panic hits fast. You reach for your phone, open Zepto, type i-Pill, tap Buy Now.

Within minutes, it’s on the way — packed discreetly, no questions asked, no awkward moments at the pharmacy. Just a plain brown bag at your door.

i-Pill is an emergency contraceptive pill with 1.5 mg levonorgestrel, made to prevent pregnancy when your regular protection fails. It works best when taken within 72 hours.

It’s not a daily pill — it’s a one-time backup for when life catches you off guard. Zepto keeps it sealed, private, and quick to reach you when you need it most.
