  1. Why Should Mifepristone be taken with Misoprostol? Mifepristone is an abortion pill that compliments the features of Misoprostol and vice versa. Both medicines are equally necessary for a successful medical abortion. You would find both these medicines in the MTP kit which is easily available at any local or online pharmacy. Many of us are curious as to why our physician prescribes Mifepristone medicine with Misoprostol. This blog helps you find the answer for the same. The very first medicine that you consume is Mifepristone orally with water. Mifepristone has anti-progesterone components which only break off the fetus from the uterus and stops its development. However, the components are not adequate enough to also remove the pregnancy contents from the body. Your pregnant body requires at least a day to cease the pregnancy growth and then it prepares for the further phase which is pregnancy content removal. For this, Misoprostol abortion pill contains prostaglandin components. When you keep the pills in the vagina or the cheek pouches, its constituents slowly get dissolved in the body and initiate the actual abortion procedure. Due to the prostaglandin components in the pill, contractions are produced in the uterus. This eventuates to stomach pain that seems similar to the menstrual pain, however, is more intense. This cannot be done without the help of Mifepristone abortion pill. Taking Misoprostol alone without the consumption of Mifepristone tablet, it can result in an incomplete pregnancy termination procedure. The intense severe stomach cramps are then followed by bleeding from the vagina. With this bleeding, the pregnancy contents in the uterus are ejected from the body in around a week. None of the aforementioned pills can end an unwanted pregnancy alone. Even if you are buying online abortion pills, you’ll always be recommended to have Mifepristone along with Misoprostol and vice versa. You can confirm the pregnancy termination procedure with a home pregnancy test.
