Hi,
Thanks for the query.
You should not use the tablets without consulting the doctor.
You once consult gynecologist, get examined and go for one ultrasound.
Ultrasound is needed to confirm the intrauterine pregnancy, the gestational age and to rule out the ectopic pregnancy.
After that with your doctor's advice she can take the tablets.
In early gestation tablets will help in completing the abortion process and usually surgical procedure is not needed.

Take care.
