What anti-inflammatory drugs should be taken after medication abortion?

Patient's question:

I had a medication abortion yesterday. Now, apart from the skin peeling, I have redness and swelling in my vagina. I would like to consult about what anti-inflammatory medication to take for this.

Doctor's answer:

Medication abortion involves two common drugs: the first controls fetal growth and development, and the second promotes the shedding of the endometrium. Generally, using these two drugs together yields better results. If there is redness and swelling in the vaginal area, it is normal to have some peeling. It can be complemented with potassium permanganate sitz baths and wiping, or with cephalosporin medications.
