Taking to TikTok, one NHS doctor has said that people taking pregnancy tests - or those trying to avid getting pregnant - should avoid following something seen on a circulating video.
The original footage updated to the video app shows a person opening a pregnancy test to reveal a 'pill' inside.
They put up the caption 'Plan B inside pregnancy test' with a shocked emoji - however this is far from the truth.
Now Dr Karan Raj, a surgeon and social media educator, has said people should not consume these so-called pills inside pregnancy tests.
He explains: "No. Do not eat the tablets you find inside a pregnancy test.
"They are not a Plan B or an emergency contraceptive pill. They are a desiccant tablet used to absorb and hold moisture to extend a shelf life of a pregnancy test similar to the little silica packets you find in shoes and bags.
"They are toxic for human consumption and will not prevent a pregnancy.
"Do not eat them and if you do, go see a doctor."
