Is Extreme Nausea Post Intake Of Mifepristone A Concern?

Hi, my doctor gave me the mifepristone tablet yesterday and I am having the misoprostol 3 days later. However I am experiencing severe nausea today and have not been able to eat all day, is this something I should be concerned about? If not how long does this last? Thanks

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello dear
I understand your concern
Nausea in your case could be due to side effect of the mifepristone, gastritis, acid reflux, anxiety.
Person sensitive to mifepristone develop more nausea.
Take following advises for the nausea
Tablet omeprazole plus domperidone before meal
Syrup mucine before meal
Take diet like banana, rice, applesauce, toast, buttermilk and yogurt
Take small frequent meal rather than large meal
I would suggest to consult the your gynecologist and take remaining abortion treatment under the supervision of the gynecologist as misoprostol aggravate the nausea.
Parentral fluid therapy can be given to maintain fluid in the body
Hope this may help you
