Brief Answer:
Get ultrasound scan

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

It is important to confirm pregnancy location by ultrasound scan before taking these tablets.

1. It will be life threatening complication if pregnancy is outside womb which is called ectopic pregnancy.

2. If pregnancy is inside womb, and early pregnancy, there are good chances of successful termination.

Brief Answer:
These tablets will work

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Ideally Mifepristone should be taken before misoprostol.

Anyway the action of drug will be there if taken after 2 to 3 hours and hence there will not be any problems. This wont affect process of abortion and the process of abortion will be successful.

Let me know if you need anymore clarifications.

Regards,
Dr. Mahesh Koregol

Brief Answer:
Ultrasound scan after one week

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

As of now nothing needs to be done as abortion seems to be complete.

Hence I suggest you wait for a week and repeat an ultrasound scan to confirm completion of abortion.
