That depends a great deal on what you want to do with your life.
Michael Chrichton, author of Jurassic Park, attended medical school but always wanted to be a writer. IIRC, he went to medical school at the behest of his family who had no faith that he could make it as a writer. His medical training helped make his writing especially good because he writes very plausible stuff, instead of hand wavy "Uh, radiation explains away my plot hole!"

So, what do want to do with your life? Why did you want to go to medical school? Was it family pressure? Were you after social status and a big paycheck? Or do you really want to be involved in making people healthier?
Have an honest heart-to-heart with yourself and base your next move on those answers. If you really wamt to go into medicine, nursing is an option. If you really wanted prestige and money, then maybe law is a good alternative.
The right answer here depends on a lot of factors you did not detail in your question.
Best.
