Expert: - 6/26/2009


Question
Hello, I have a friend who is more than a month pregnant now and has Cytotec pills but is not sure how to take them.
Can you please help us and tell me how to take them and which is better orally or vaginally? or is it both?
How many pills do we need? for how many hours/days should she be taking them?
some people said she should have an empty stomach and not eat all day, is that true?
I need the details please.
Thank you.

Answer
Dear Meera,

I don't recommend the cytotec pills at all. There have been stories lately of women having severe side effects and sometimes death from taking these. Please talk to her and tell her these dangers. Where did you obtain the pills? I wish you would email me so I can tell you and her some information about these pills that would enlighten her. Please email me or have her email me at DCHERYL51@yahoo.com
Also, on allexperts.com there is another expert on this subject, abortion, Pat Goltz, She is an expert on this subject and ask her a question about it.

Sincerely,
