Hello Mr. Ramakrishna, I have gone through your query and understood your concern. The medication prescribed by the doctor to induce the medical abortion is the usual one given. This combination gives the best effects and hence is widely used. There can be side effects like nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and severe pain abdomen after taking the medication. This is due to the prostaglandin effect. Anti-emetics and anti-spasmodics may be used. A proper dosage is given based on the age of gestation and abortion is induced. The whole process takes 2-3 days and follow up is done after two weeks and this includes a repeat sonogram to confirm completion of the process. Hope this helps.
