During an early medical abortion, most women will have strong cramping, similar to period pains. There are many ways to lessen the pain: wear comfortable clothes stay in a familiar and relaxing place apply a heating pad or hot water bottle to your lower stomach use pain medicine like ibuprofen, or codeine How to get pain medicine You can buy ibuprofen tablets in either 200mg or 400mg strengths at your local pharmacy.
A healthcare professional will also offer you codeine 30mg, prescribed by one of our doctors, to take home. Codeine 30mg is only available with a prescription. Some products that you can buy at the pharmacy have lower doses of codeine combined with either ibuprofen or paracetamol.
However, they will not give you the same amount of pain relief as the codeine we provide. How to use these medicines Ibuprofen is for mild to moderate pain. Codeine is for moderate to severe pain.
You can start with ibuprofen, adding codeine when you need stronger pain relief. Or, you can just start with codeine. It's up to you. You can also alternate the medicines depending on how you feel. What dose you should take and how often you can take it There are 2 strengths of ibuprofen tablets - follow the directions that apply for the strength you buy: Ibuprofen (200mg): take 3 or 4 tablets by mouth every 8 hours as needed.
Do not take more than 12 tablets in 24 hours. Or Ibuprofen (400mg): take 1 or 2 tablets by mouth every 8 hours as needed. Do not take more than 6 tablets in 24 hours. As well as Ibuprofen you can also take: Codeine (30mg): take 1 or 2 tablets by mouth every 4 hours as needed.
