Misoprostol is not an abortion pill. Ru-486 is an abortion pill.

Misoprostol is SUPPOSED to be used with ru-486, but it *could* be used alone.

Misoprostol induces labor and contractions, but only if you use the drug in the proper dosage, and the proper way.

It is certainly not safe to do without a doctors help, but many women have no choice.

In my country abortion is legal but I don't have enough money to do it... I don't know if i'm pregnant but I'm still thinking what would happen, my doctor could get me the RU pill?

It is not free, but you can get RU-486 from an abortion doctor. It usually is more expensive than surgical abortion though.

What country do you live in, if I may ask?

In Canada, abortion is 'free', it is covered under the government healthcare plan.

It is the same in london...

AHH...

Mexico DOES have special funding for women that cannot afford an abortion, you should try to call around and get some information about that.
