It is going to be used for abortion
Brief Answer:
200ug of cytolog within 48 hours of Mifepristone
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear.
I were to suggest single dose 200ug of Cytolog (can be taken within 49 days or less duration) which has to be taken after 48 hours of mifepristone 600mg for abortion.Cytolog is not used solely to terminate pregnancy.

They told us to take two pills oraly & two through vagina. This will make abortion. Is this right?
Brief Answer:
It is right and often practiced
Detailed Answer:
Hi.
I were to follow this when you donot use mifepristone.Recommend additional 200mcg one tablet per oral once daily for next two days.Chances of failure are marginally less (by 3%) in the absence of mifepristone.I were to do an ultrasound abdomen and pelvis to confirm pregnancy(rule out ectopic pregnancy) before you use misoprostol for abortion.Advise close monitoring/followup.
