Hello,
It looks like I might have to go down the medical route next week, following a MC in early September, that hasn't finished with Expectant Mangement.

The hospital I'm under is just changing their procedures from medical management - it used to be 2 tablets, go home, come back to days later, go into hosptail have have a course of up to 5 more tablets, then home the next day.......they are now chaging this, to 1 tablet and go straight home.

Has anyone any experinec of the 1 tablet option?

Thanks.

Sorry you are going through this, I was given tablets 3 weeks ago but that was during a mc at 20 weeks so I'm not sure if they are the same ones? I had one vaginal tablet and one oral, then another one oral 4 hours later as the first two hadn't worked very well.

I hope someone cones along soon who can answer your question x

I had 2, 48 hours apart from each other. The first was oral and the second was vaginal. I had to stay in hospital until I had passed the sac but that didn't take long after the second dose.

However, I had a missed miscarriage so if yours had started by itself then the first tablet might not be necessary. I thought the 2 doses 48 hours apart was pretty standard.
