Would An Abortion Pill Be Effective In A Regular Marijuana User?

Hello, my wife is having a medical termination of pregnancy tomorrow afternoon. It s non-surgical - just the pill, and she has only been pregnant for a few weeks. She is also a daily marijuana user (we live in a legal state). I ve read online that women should abstain from using marijuana 12-24 hours before taking the pill, but I am wondering what the potential consequences would be to consuming marijuana within 12 hours of the abortion. In short, can you smoke pot the night before a pill abortion?

Hello,

Due to interaction of the marijuana with the pill, it would be better if she stops it before and after taking the pill. She can manage it.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Eni
