Here's how to safely use the Unwanted Kit (Mifepristone 200 mg + Misoprostol 200 mcg) to terminate an early pregnancy:

1. Understanding the Medication

   • The Unwanted Kit contains two medicines: Mifepristone and Misoprostol.
   • Mifepristone blocks the hormone progesterone, which is essential for pregnancy to continue. This stops the pregnancy from growing.
   • Misoprostol causes the uterus to contract and expel the pregnancy tissue.

2. Dosage and Administration

   • First, take Mifepristone 200 mg orally with meals.
   • After 24 to 48 hours, take Misoprostol 200 mcg. Misoprostol can be taken orally, buccally (placed between the gum and cheek), or vaginally, depending on your healthcare provider’s instructions.
   • Follow the exact timing and method advised by your doctor for best results.

3. Timing and Monitoring

   • Strictly adhere to the timing between the two medications for effectiveness (usually 24-48 hours).
   • Expect bleeding and cramping after taking Misoprostol; this is a sign the medication is working. Bleeding may be heavier than a normal period and can last for several days.

4. When to Seek Medical Help

   • Contact a doctor immediately if you experience:
     • Very heavy bleeding (soaking more than two pads per hour for two hours)
     • Severe abdominal pain not relieved by painkillers
     • Fever lasting more than 24 hours
     • Signs of allergic reaction (rash, swelling, difficulty breathing)
   • A follow-up visit is important to confirm the abortion is complete and to check your health.

5. Precautions and Contraindications

   • This medication should not be used if you have an ectopic pregnancy, certain bleeding disorders, or allergies to these medicines.
   • Always consult a doctor before starting this treatment to ensure it is safe for you.

6. Support and Counseling

   • Emotional support is important during this time; consider counseling if needed.
   • Discuss contraception options with your doctor after the procedure to prevent unintended pregnancies.
