i heard that info about Cortal and a softdrink... they say that the Cortal tablet should be dissolved in the softdrink with high acidity and drink it, but there are side effects as well, you will feel dizzy and restless.. i dont know if it works, as for preventing getting pregnant, or miscarriage... but some also say that Cytotec is somewhat synonym to Cortal but the use is totally different...

all in all, ask your doctor first and consult your problems.. nobody can share any info about these drugs that are not quite sure yet what it does... but if you do visit your doctor, then he/she can refer you to a drug that could help you...

i am studying as a nursing student, and i have a subject at school that is about drugs (Pharmacology) and as what i have researched, Cortal is an Aspirin... and Cytotec is an anti-ulcer drug, these two drugs are cautioned to be taken by a person who are pregnant or becoming pregnant. It should not be taken without any knowledge about the tablet's dose, dosage, side effects, and many more.. Learn the drug first before taking it... Let the doctor help you...

And as what i have learned, Cortal can be bought in few selected pharmacies.. Some dont allow Cortal to be sold to the market, and to the people... As well as Cytotec.. but still you need to learn the most useful and most reliable methods of birth control...

thanks for reading, i hope my info is useful.. and i am glad to be of great help to you...

thanks ^_^

no not likely to get pregnant on your period or the day before or the day after.

people dont ovulate that quickly. ovulation happens about 14-16 days after your lmp (going by the first date)

use bc if you dont want to be pregnant

cytotec is  also a medicine use for abortion.you may put it into your vagina or it can be oral. cortal also use for abortion minimum of 2-4 tablets and a beer.it will surely abort the baby. and for the girls that is drinking cortal after sex with a softdrinks said to be effective. it kills the sperm inside your body. that is the belief of other.
pls. avoid this drugs for preventing pregnancy.3 days after menstrual cycle is the safest day for having sex.5 days before and 5 days after is also good, it will not easily gt you pregnant.practice natural and safe sex...good day!
