Brief Answer:
tablets

Detailed Answer:
Hi

These tablets cause pain in abdomen and vomiting.

The remaining 2 tablets have to be taken vaginally.

I suggest you take these medicines under a gynecologist guidance after ultrasound scan as if there is ectopic pregnancy it could be life threatening.

Thats what I was telling you. These medicines have abdominal pain and bleeding.

Please get ultrasound scan done soon and see a gynecologist.
