How reliable is plan b if taken within an hour?

Me and my gf had a condom break we didn't notice until afterwards. We're in our twenties. She is not on birth control, so she took the plan b pill right after, within the hour. I've never had this happen before. How reliable is plan B? Will we likely be okay?

I've heard that the FAQs for the product say it is effective in 7 out of 8 cases, but you should call the product's hotline to know for sure.  Also, it will depend on what time of the month it is for her; she might not even be ovulating.
