Brief Answer:
Dicyclomine with mefenamic acid is useful.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing to us.

A combination of the anti-prostaglandin mefenamic acid along with anti-spasmodic dicyclomine is usually useful to relieve pain.

There are several regimes followed by any doctor. This is one of them and is according to the standard norms followed. Observe the sequence of events carefully and report to the doctor in case of severe pain or excessive bleeding. If the process of abortion does not initiate within a day after the Misoprostol, the matter should be reported to the doctor and an additional dose may be needed.

Hope your query is clarified. Please feel free to contact for further clarifications. I will be happy to help.

regards,
