Abortion Pill Al Ras
What can you do to prepare for taking the abortion pill Al Ras (also called medication abortion)?
Abortion Pill Al Ras, Depending on availability and other factors, you may take two different medications (mifepristone and misoprostol) or only one type of medication (just misoprostol) for a medication abortion.
If you’re having a medication abortion using two different medications (mifepristone and misoprostol), and your abortion appointment is in person, the provider will give you the first medication (mifepristone) at the health center and the second medication (misoprostol) to use up to 48 hours later at home (or somewhere else safe and comfortable).
The health center you’re going to should give you specific instructions about what to bring and do to prepare for the appointment where you will take the first medication. Check out our Abortion Pills Nakhlat Deira available for you.
If you’re having a medication abortion using only one medication (misoprostol), your provider will probably have you take three doses of the medicine three hours apart. Each dose will be four pills, for a total of 12 pills. All three doses will be taken in a safe place of your choosing.
Because the side effects may be more severe with a misoprostol-only medication abortion, it’s a good idea to find a place that is as comfortable as possible, with access to a bathroom.
Telehealth abortion providers (providers who offer the abortion pill online using telehealth) may ask you for the same type of documentation as in-person providers.
However, because of state restrictions and other factors, telehealth abortion providers may have additional requirements for who is eligible to get a telehealth abortion from them. For example, many telehealth providers require that you have a mailing address in the state they serve. That means they may ask you to provide additional information– such as a mailing address–before your telehealth abortion pill visit.
Before your appointment, make sure you:
Ask if there is anything you should avoid eating, drinking, or doing leading up to your appointment.
Ask which of your medications you should continue to take leading up to your appointment and which (if any) you shouldn’t take.
Don’t take any additional over-the-counter medications, like Tylenol or Advil, before your appointment, unless your health care provider tells you to. Avoid any substances that will alter your mental state, like alcohol, cannabis, or other drugs, on the day of your abortion.
Ask what over-the-counter pain medication you can take during your abortion if your provider doesn’t offer you prescription pain medication.
