Hello,
Any attempt to abort by self medication can be full f complications and even fatal.
Best would be to consult a doctor and get it done under his/her supervision.
Thanks

Detailed answer.....
Hello,
Thanks for the query.
I have read your query and understand your concern.
CYTOTEC ( MISOPROSTOL ) can alone cause abortion but the success rate is only 80% while if it is given in combination with ( MIFEPRISTONE ) success rate improves to about 97%.
I hope it helps,however you are most welcome to revert to me for any further query.
Best of luck
Thanks
