I'm really worried because I'm about 12 weeks into my pregnancy and I feel like I need to consider my options. Is there an abortion pill available in my country's pharmacies that I could get without having to see a doctor? I realize it was a mistake, and I'm looking for advice on what medication might be safe.

For a medical abortion within the first 9 weeks of pregnancy, you can consider taking a combination of Mifepristone and Misoprostol. Mifepristone is usually taken first, followed by Misoprostol 24-48 hours later. Please consult with a healthcare provider for proper guidance on the dosage and administration.

I'm currently 11 weeks pregnant and my ENT doctor has put me on Hicet AX tablets to take once a day for 57 days to help with a bad cough and cold I've been dealing with. I'm feeling a bit uneasy about whether this medication is actually safe to use during pregnancy. Can you let me know if it's okay to continue taking it while I'm in my first trimester?

You can take it no problem.
