Hi,
Thanks for your query,
There were no research work done to know possible side effects of serratopeptidase drug if taken in initial days of pregnancy.
It is an enzyme based medicine & no known side effects should be noticed in day today practice.
Go for USG to confirm any defects before deciding for abortion.
Thanks.
