Hello,

First of all, you have taken extreme dose of above medication and you have to wait few more days to complete the abortion procedure. Extra dose may create adverse effect on your health.

You need to consult with gynecologist for follow-up examination. You may require one ultrasound scan to check retained bits. In such case, D & C is the procedure of choice to evacuate the uterine cavity completely.

Hope, it helps you. Be well.
