How long after taking the medication for medication abortion can you eat?

Patient's question:

After an unexpected pregnancy, if you don't want it, you took medication for medication abortion. Could you please tell me how long after taking the medication can you eat something?

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, you can eat after taking the medication for two hours. Generally, after taking the medication for an abortion, the pregnancy sac is expelled within 24 hours of the last meal. If it has not been expelled within 24 hours, it means the abortion has been successful, and a D&C procedure is required. You can have a follow-up ultrasound after a week to check if the pregnancy sac has been completely expelled. Rest after the procedure, and do not have sexual intercourse for one month.
