Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
misoprostol and mifiprestone) is effective if pregnancy is less than seven weeks. Get an ultrasound done to confirm the period of gestation. If it is less than 7 weeks then MTP by medical methods can be done.
Misoprostal is taken after 6-8 hours of taking mifepristone. Misoprostol 2 tablets are placed in the vagina and the dose is repeated after 12 hours if no bleeding starts. The misoprostol tablets will cause you to have cramps and bleed heavily. This usually starts about 2 hours after using the misoprostol and the process of abortion is completed within 4 or 5 hours after taking the misoprostol.

After abortion, you will have to take a repeat ultrasound to check the status of pregnancy. If there are any retained products of conception then you may need a D+C (dilatation and curettage).
These drugs are to be taken under Medical Supervision as it can cause serious side effects as nausea,vomiting, fever, pain, excessive vaginal bleeding and sometimes incomplete abortion can also occur causing the remnants to remain.
Please do not use these without a medical supervision.

It can be taken under the tongue also but then it is associated with more systemic side effects like chills, rigor, nausea, fever, diarrhea, abdominal cramps, etc.

If you have already taken those four tablets then there is no need to take four more tablets.
Do consult a gynecologist for a physical examination in case of complications.
