What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Vaginal Misoprostol 600 mcgDrug

All patients will receive three doses of vaginal misoprostol every four hours. The first dose of misoprostol 600 mcg will be administrated at the hospital. Then the patient will be observed for 1 hour for any immediate adverse reaction Clear instructions about the method and timing of the second dose will be given upon sending home.
- Two doses of misoprostol 600 mcg each (3 tablets of 200 mcg per dose).
- Paracetamol, eight hourlies, will be provided as analgesic or antipyretic.
- A specimen bottle to collect the POC if passed out.
- Two pairs of disposable gloves.
- Pre-filled histopathological examination form to be sent to the laboratory together with the products of conception
Vaginal Misoprostol 800 mcgDrug
Also called Active Comparator

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Completeness of abortion
expulsion of Products of conception by visual inspection
Measured: 7 days
Secondary outcomes (4)
Successful medical abortion
cervical os is closed with endometrial thickness of less than 15 mm
Measured: 14 days
Bleeding pattern following treatment
This will be assessed by hemoglobin(g/dl) and haematocrit level after the treatment , if the patients required blood transfusion and number of units transfused and number of days of bleeding
Measured: 7 days
Pain resulting from the procedure
this will be assessed by the doses of paracetamol given in mg
Measured: 7 days
Additional uterotonic used
additional misoprostol doses in mcg
Measured: 14 days
