Brief Answer:
Take rest of two tablets after 24 hours.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.

You should never try a pregnancy to abort at home because it may sometimes leads to severe bleeding, retained product of conception and infection. In my opinion you should go and consult an expert or a doctor for your problem.

First you should confirm the site and exact week of pregnancy by ultrasonography. Then you can take abortion pills as prescribed by your doctor. The first three pills are not supposed to be taken at the same time. Now that your wife has already taken the three pills it is best to wait for the bleeding and take rest of the two tablets after 24 hours. The dullness and feverish sensation is a common side effect of these pills.

Your wife should go for repeat ultrasonography after 10 days of taking abortion pills.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.

Wishing you good health.
Regards.
