Getting More Information About Using Medical Abortion Pills

By Alan Bradd


One of the most common drug that people in the pharmaceutical industry or the medical community make use of is Mifepristone, which is used to get rid of abortion in the first trimester. The main function of this drug is to reduce the progesterone receptors and thus used as an emergency contraceptive, which is generally consumed in smaller doses.

The proportion caused due to this abortion leads to the decrease in the pregnancy process, it is considered as a natural method of eliminating the pregnancy. Next, we have is the uterine abnormality, which is responsible for around 1/4th of the total causes for abortion.

Mifeprex is a drug that is popularly known as abortion pill or otherwise also known by its scientific name as Mifepristone. The process of using the abortion pills to eliminate abortion is considered as non-surgical abortion or medical abortion. It also becomes very important to understand that Mifeprex is a combination of two drugs, that is mifepristone and then it is followed by misoprostol.

Mifepristone was mostly sold in the countries other than the USA by a laboratory in France in the name as Mifegyne or Mifeprex and it is known to provide a lot of medical benefits. For medicinal purposes, the Mifeprex is used for the termination of pregnancy, which is essentially used in the stage of first trimester or the first three months of the gestation period. It is mainly used in the European countries in Sweden and Britain.

The causes of abortion in the second trimester abortions are considerably different from what happens in the case of first trimester abortions. Here the proportion of cases that have abortions due to genetic abnormality decreases and those that happen due to trauma and other conditions such as cervical incompetence and hypertension increases.

There are conditions found where only consuming the mifepristone doesn't lead to bleeding and it can only be seen after the second drug is taken i.e. misoprostol. The misoprostol drug can be consumed using two methods, either given orally or directly inserted into the vagina. Abdominal cramps start occurring within 48 hours of consuming it; uterine contractions are then followed by discharge of the uterus contents eliminating the aborted foetus out of the body.

Since the time the drug came into existence, the drug has been scrutinized by a lot of controversies and negative feedbacks. People in the United States itself were known to actively protest against its approval and there are more and more people that are continuously protesting and fighting for the withdrawal of the drug from the market.

Another important symptoms that might make the patient aware of the abortion is having cramps and pain in the lower abdominal. The pain might occur in the inner side of the thigh. The female patient might feel the elimination of the products of conception. In some case the women might be able to carry the abortion process without pain. Lastly, nausea, vomiting, fever, excessive sweating and several other symptoms shall also be visible due to excess loss of blood that causes shock, but this kind of complication in the body is quite rare.
