Hi, Thanks for the query. As you had previous abortion, your doctor might have prescribed progesterone pills as preventive measure to wards the miscarriage. According to FDA susten belongs to category B drug in pregnancy, so the chance of fetal harm is very less. Whereas duphaston belongs to category D. But there are no proved evidence against the drug usage. So continue them as adviced by your doctor.
