Hi,

Thanks for the query.

MTP kit is available at any pharmacy, however it is a prescription alone medication which can be bought with a prescription from a doctor. Further its use needs to be monitored by an expert trained in field of medical termination of pregnancy. This is to avoid complications like continuous heavy bleeding or incomplete abortion.

So for her safety, I recommended you see a gynecologist and do not try MTP pills by yourself.

Hope this answers your query. Let me know if you need further information.
