Do I need to take the abortion pills in a different way if I weigh more?

No. You take the pills the same way, no matter how much you weigh.

  • Same pills, same amount. Everyone takes the same pills (mifepristone and misoprostol) in the same amount. Your weight does not change this. 
  • They work just as well. Studies show the pills work the same for people of all body sizes.
