As per duration, 8 days is definitely long. But you have to see how much is the blood loss.
I suggest you should get a Sonography done. With a normal report it is worthwhile trying to stop the bleeding by medicines.
Next Steps
Please consult a Gynaecologist in your area because Tele-consultation for this problem may lead to over-treatment.

The initial cycles in any adolescent can be prolonged or irregular.
It may or may not be a matter of concern.
Certain tests are required to rule some underlying issues.
Another concern could be a fall in hemoglobin due to prolonged menses.
You'll understand the situation better if you consult a gynaec.
However don't panic... Usually it's nothing.
