How to end a pregnancy with Mifepristone and Misoprostol pills?
To end a pregnancy up to 12 weeks of pregnancy, the medicines should be taken as follow:
- First, you should swallow one tablet of Mifepristone (200 mg).
- 24 hours later, put 4 tablets of Misoprostol (200 mcg each) under your tongue and keep them there for 30 minutes, until the tablets are dissolved. You can swallow your saliva. After 30 minutes, swallow any remains of the tablets.
We strongly advise you to use Misoprostol under your tongue. This way, no remains of the pills can be found in the event that you need to go to a hospital. There are no blood tests that can show that you have taken Misoprostol, so there will be no way to prove that you tried to do an abortion.
- If you have less bleeding than expected and are concerned the medication has not worked, 3 hours after using the Misoprostol, put 2 tablets of Misoprostol (200 mcg each) under your tongue. Keep them there for 30 minutes, until the tablets are dissolved. After 30 minutes, swallow any remains of the tablets.
- If you still have not started bleeding and you have more misoprostol tablets, you can continue taking 2 more tablets of Misoprostol (200 mcg each) under your tongue, keep them there for 30 minutes, until the tablets are dissolved. After 30 minutes, swallow any remains of the tablets.
- You can repeat this up to maximum 5 doses of Misoprostol (dose = 2 x 200 msg) in total until you are sure that abortion has completed.
If you use Misoprostol 400mcg, instead of Misoprostol 200mcg, the number of Misoprostol pills needed per dose should be halved.
