hi,
you should not use tablets unless intrauterine pregnancy is confirmed by ultrasound,
according to your description there is possibility for missed abortion or rarely ectopic pregnancy,
so you consult gynecologist as early as possible and undergo ultrasound to rule out above things,
if abortion is complete no need to worry,
if not you may need D&C.
take care
