Hi,
Thanks for the query.
Meprate belongs to category x drug in pregnancy according to FDA.
Means it can possibly harm the fetus.
So once consult gynecologist and go for ultrasound to confirm the pregnancy and to estimate the gestational age.
If there evidence of miscarriage you can go for tablets to complete the process.
If the gestational sac and fetus are good and if you want to continue the pregnancy, continue with regular antenatal checkups and ultrasound examinations. So that any abnormality can be find out at the earliest.

Take care.
