Is there any drugs to abort a 6 weeks old pregnancy?

Medication abortion, also called the abortion pill or tablet, is a safe and effective way to end a pregnancy up to 10 weeks from the first day of your last menstrual period (LMP). Medication abortion involves taking two different medications, mifepristone and misoprostol.

Mifepristone, the first medication, blocks the action of the hormone progesterone, which is needed for a pregnancy to continue. Misoprostol, the second medication, causes the uterus to contract and expel the pregnancy tissue.

Medication abortion is over 95% effective when used correctly. It is also safe, with few side effects. The most common side effects include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and vaginal bleeding.

Medication abortion is available at most Planned Parenthood health centers and other abortion providers. It can also be prescribed by some doctors.

If you are considering medication abortion, talk to your doctor about whether it is right for you. Medication abortion is not right for everyone. You may not be able to have a medication abortion if you have certain medical conditions, such as an ectopic pregnancy or a bleeding disorder.
