Dosage of MTP Kit Pills

Start with Mifepristone orally with water. Swallow the 200mg pill as a whole with water. After 24 to 48 hours, administer Misoprostol pills either buccally or vaginally. Place all four 200mcg Misoprostol pills in the cheek pouches (2 on each side). Let the medicines melt for half an hour and consume the remains with a sip of water.

You may need 2 to 3 MTP Kits if the pregnancy is over 6 weeks and within 12 weeks.

MTP Kit - Mifepristone and Misoprostol Tablets Uses

The Mifepristone pill may not cause any noticeable side effects. However, the MTP Kit - mifepristone and misoprostol medicine blocks the progesterone hormone and disintegrates the endometrial lining. The fetus and other pregnancy tissues detach from the implantation site (the uterine lining), and do not grow further, bringing an end to the conception. The uterine contents are then expelled via the Misoprostol administration. Misoprostol pills evacuate the womb by causing uterine contractions and widening the cervical opening. The conception parts pass through the vagina and heavy vaginal bleeding.

Managing MTP Kit Symptoms

Use large maxi-sized sanitary napkins for the bleeding. Avoid the risk of infection and blockage by not using menstrual cups and tampons. Maintain hygiene and change underpants regularly if soiled. Drink plenty of water and electrolyte water, fresh juice, but do not consume alcohol after taking the MTP Kit - misoprostol and mifepristone, a medical termination of pregnancy medicine. Large blood clots and pregnancy tissue clumps are normal during the medical abortion. Do not forcefully pull out the pregnancy contents with any instrument. Take pain-relief medicine to manage abdominal pain. Or apply a hot water bag and heating pad to ease the cramps.
