My gynecologist has suggested to take contrapill kit for abortion of five week pregnancy. She suggested to take mifepristone with water and after 48 hours, 2 tablet of misoprostol orally. But I am confused and forgot to ask from my gynecologist that, should I swallow misoprostol with water or to take it sublingual or buccally? What's best option to take misoprostol?
