General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Kindly confirm the pregnancy by urine pregnancy test or ultrasound scan before the pills are taken. Pregnancy should be below 12 weeks.
Unwanted kit contains Mifepristone 200 (1 tablet) and Misoprostol 200 (4 tablets).
Mifepristone has to be taken on empty stomach. After 48 hours misoprostol take all the misoprostol tablets together.
After 3-4 hours the bleeding should start. The bleeding lasts for 3-5 days or sometimes little longer.
An ultrasound scan has to be done after 2 weeks to confirm whether the abortion is complete and all the products of conception has been expelled.
Please note that abortion through use of pills has to be done under medical supervision.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
