Hi,
At the outset, induction of medical abortion has to be performed on the advice of a qualified doctor. The presence of an intrauterine pregnancy along with the period of gestation should be confirmed before proceeding. The dosage you have taken is usually not sufficient; it is preferably taken in one way, oral or vaginal and in case of oral administration it should be held in the mouth for 20-30 minutes till it dissolves. You may have to repeat the dose, but do it under the guidance of a doctor only. If not, you may land up in an incomplete abortion with heavy bleeding and infection. Take care.
