I am 72 kgs as of now. what should be the proper dosage for Mifepristone as well as Misoprostol and at how many hours gap should I take the Misoprostol after I have taken the Mifepristone? Please Advice.

Hi
Take 600mg of mifepristone orally. 2-5% of them abort following mifepristone alone.
If you don't abort take misoprostol 400 micrograms orally 48 hours later.
Usually You will start bleeding and abort within 24 hours. The bleeding is heavy in the first 2-4 hours. Light bleeding can continue up to 2 weeks sometimes.
Take Injection Anti D if you are Rh negative.
I hope I have answered to your satisfaction.
