How Should Abortion Pills Be Taken?
Dear Doctor,
I am 3-4 weeks pregnant. I wanted to have a pill abortion so I was given Searle 1461 tablets. The doctor inserted 4 vaginally. Then asked me to swallow 2 at the same time. I lied on my back for 4 hours and too 2 tablets of Panadol extra for the cramps. After the 4 hours passed, I got up to the toilet and I was a bit constipated and cramped. I forced my gutt out but then started bleeding. I took 3 doses of searle orally (2 tablets) every 6 hours but no more bleeding took place after the first time it started. I have 2 more tablets left with me. Should I insert them vaginally instead? I am in a country where abortion is totally illegal. Please help.

Hi,
Thanks for writing to us.
The abortion pills are taken under an expert supervision only because it may lead to many complications,
In my opinion now you should wait for bleeding to come.
I think I have answered your query if you have further questions i will be happy to help you.
Good luck.
