Hello

Thanks for writing to us

I guess you have taken mifeprine or abortion medicine as you have mentioned 3 -4 weeks pregnancy

In my knowledge apo is atenolol or antihypertensive drug

If you taken abortion pill or hormonal pill then you should have taken the full course

One tablet is only half of the dose , there are other tablets which are to be taken along with it after 48 hrs

Your doctor must have prescribed that

If you are having heavy bleeding or prolonged bleeding then it is better to get an ultrasound done as there can be an incomplete abortion

Till then tranexamic acid tablets can be taken under doctor's prescription to stop the bleeding

Take iron supplements

Best wishes

Take care
