Contra Kit contains Mifepristone and Misoprostol, which are medicines used for medical abortion. It works by stopping a pregnancy that has already started, rather than preventing one from occurring. If she took it after a possible conception, it may terminate the early pregnancy, but it does not act as emergency contraception to prevent pregnancy beforehand. She should follow the doctor?s instructions carefully and have a follow-up to confirm the outcome.
