Scan Showed Residue Remaining In Uterus Post Medical Abortion. Can This Be Removed Through Pills?

Hi Doc! I had undergone a medical abortion on August 20, 2012 as my baby did not get a heartbeat . As I did not get a period even after a month and a half I got a sonography done. It says that there is residue remaining in my uterus . Can this be removed my pills, as I donot want to undergo surgical procedure once again. If I go through pills, is there any side effect?
