I am 5 weeks pregnant and my doctor advised me to take duvadillan and duphaston 3x a day for 14 days due to spotting(dark brown) and I had miscarriage during my first pregnancy. This is my second one and I am 35yrs old... I am on my 10th days and no spotting anymore.. Can I stop taking the medicine?

Hello,

Usually, it is advisable two weeks duration in case of preterm labor risky patients. But if patients developed continuous contractions, then we will advise till third-trimester completion.

But in your case, if you are not spotting and no pain, then you can stop it after your treating doctor advice. Avoid heavy work, don't drive while taking this tablet you may develop giddiness. Please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
