Hi and thanks for using this forum.

Mifepristone and misoprotol usually induce abortion in approximately 97% of women within a day. Some may not work until like 2weeks later.
Rarely it exceeds a week. Failure rates, though as low as 1-2% exists. In this case, it is advised to do a manual vacuum aspiration or dilatation and curretage.

I will strongly suggest that if it doesn't occur with 3-4days, then meet and discuss the other options with your doctor.

Wish you good health and hope you found this helpful.

Hi,
Thanks for writing to us.
In my opinion you should always use an abortion kit in the supervision of an expert doctor.
She had pills inappropriately, bleeding normally start immediately after taking mesoprost tablet. You can wait for sometime.
Good luck.
Take care.
