Am pregnant and i was told by a friend to take quinine, apiol and steel, dulcolax and insert cytotec (misoprostol) for miscarriage, do u think is safe?

No, not safe: Inducing abortions outside of a medical facility is very dangerous, and can result in serious injury or death.

Eating: rat poison might induce an abortion too - but I still wouldn't recommend it to a patient. The same toxins that might kill a fetus could also harm or kill you !.
