She was having a common women's health procedure when she was given the wrong medicine, according to some people.
The hospital says she had a bad reaction to the medicine, but it's not clear if it was a mistake.
She is now in the intensive care unit, and her family is worried.
The hospital hasn't said much about what happened.
A 26-year-old woman is in critical condition after an alleged medication error during a D&C procedure at Cooper Hospital, Mumbai.
She was reportedly administered the wrong medication while spinal anaesthesia was being given.
