hello dear.
understand your concern.
you take abortion kit which contain 5 tablets after confirming intrauterine pregnancy by USG scan. It should be used under the advice and observation of gyanaecologist.
1 tab of mifepristone 600mg which taken orally.
after 48 hours,you hv to take another 4 tab.of misopristol 200mcg each.place 4 tablets of misopristol in vagina one by one under the observation gynaecologist.

Do not take as self medication at home as it cause serious complication like excessive bleeding, incomplete abortion, and abnormal development of pregnancy in case of failure.
Follow up at 7th day and USG should be done to confirm the compete process of medical termination of pregnancy.
after this take some healthy diet,drinkmore water,take tab.meftalspas for pain etc.
this kit is only applicable for 9 week intra uterine pregnancy,so do it underobservation of your doctor,its more safe.

hope this will guide you.
best regards.
