Hi and thanks for the query,
The essence of the drug prescribed is actually to stop bleeding and decrease the risk of miscarriage. This drug actually has different mild side effects. I can assure you that the drug has no main side effect on the development of the babies, so you should not be worried. Elsewhere, it could be advisable she gets some bed rest, follow treatment as prescribed and should not fail to notify her doctor in case she experiences persistence or aggravation of the bleeding. Thanks and kind regards as I wish her good health.
