Hallow Dear,

You need not be under stress for unwanted pregnancy.

Tab. Mifepristone followed after 24-48 hours by Tab. Misoprostol terminate the pregnancy safely and effectively up to 9 weeks of gestation. However, these are not 'over the counter' medicines. You will get them only with Obstetrician's prescription. Take them in appropriate dosages as told by Obstetrician. Usually the abortion process starts within 24 hours of the last done consumed; however occasional delay up to 7 days is also known. It advisable to have a follow up visit to the Obstetrician 7 days after the last done of Misoprostol is consumed. You may confirm the completeness of abortion by ultrasonography.

These medicines are known to cause developmental abnormalities in the baby. Hence, if at all these medicines fail to terminate the pregnancy, the decision should not be reverted to continuation of pregnancy. In such case, the pregnancy should be terminated by surgical evacuation of the uterus by MVA or similar method.

I hope this helps you.
