Indications:
Mifebort is indicated for the medical termination of
intrauterine pregnancy through 49 days pregnancy. For
purposes of this treatment, pregnancy is dated from the
first day of the last menstrual period in a presumed 28
day cycle with ovulation occurring at mid-cycle. Any
intrauterine device [IUD] should be removed before
treatment with Mifebort begins. Patients taking Mifebort
must take 400 mg of Misobort two days after taking
mifepristone unless a complete abortion has already been
confirmed before that time (see Dosage And
Administration). Pregnancy termination by surgery is
recommended in cases when Mifebort and Misobort fail to
cause termination of intrauterine pregnancy.
Description:
Mifepristone blocks the hormone progesterone needed to
maintain the pregnancy. Because this hormone is blocked,
the uterine lining begins to shed, the cervix begins to
soften and bleeding may occur. With the later addition
of the second medication, misoprostol, the uterus
contracts and the pregnancy is usually expelled within 6
to 8 hours.
Because the woman decides when to take the second
medication within the time frame of 24 to 72 hours after
the first medication, she has some control over when she
experiences the miscarriage and its side effects. Some
women choose the Abortion Pill because of the privacy it
offers. Some women feel empowered by taking an active
role in the process.
