A few hours after unprotected intercourse (4.5 hours) I took escapelle, but the tablet stuck to my tongue and I washed it down with Pepsi without dissolving it and swallowed it, could it have reduced the effectiveness of the pill?

The situation you described will not affect the effectiveness of the tablet after Escapelle. There is no need to worry, taking the "morning after pill" quickly enough (in the case of Escapelle within 72 hours) is an effective method of contraception. The rate of pregnancies despite the use of emergency contraception is approximately 2% (2 out of 100 women become pregnant). However, it must be taken into account that the probability of pregnancy is influenced by various factors, such as: the time that has passed between intercourse and taking the pill, the phase of the woman's cycle in which intercourse occurred, the age of the partners and their overall fertility.
Confirmation of the absence of pregnancy can be a pregnancy test performed about 14 days after intercourse: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/97388/domowe-laboratorium-pink-test-ciazowy-strumieniowy-super-czuly-test/apteki
