Hi dear,
both these drugs are progesteron preparations with different salt and are helpful in preventing pregnancy mishaps.
Any of these can be taken.
The medicine prescribed depends on doctors preference and there clinical experience with the particular drug,
In my view follow the doctor whom you are planning to visit for antenatals and take the prescribed medicine accordingly
I find this answer helpful
