Only misoprostol is permitted in some areas.The first medicine (mifepristone) is normally administered at a clinic or medical office; but, in some situations, it may be administered at home.The second drug (misoprostol) will be taken one to two days later at home or another location of your choice (not in the clinic or at your health care provider's office). You will be given another dose of misoprostol four hours after the first dose if you are between 70 and 77 days pregnant. Even if you are fewer than 70 days pregnant, some doctors need you to take a second dose of misoprostol.
