What is a medication abortion?
Medication abortion is the use of medications to induce abortion. This is also called the abortion pill, a medical abortion, or a chemical abortion. In the United States, there are three methods of inducing a medication abortion: mifepristone combined with misoprostol, methotrexate combined with misoprostol, and misoprostol by itself. Mifepristone is also known as Mifeprex®. (It is not the over-the-counter “Morning After Pill” or Plan B.)
The most common medication abortion involves a combination of mifepristone and misoprostol. This early abortion is when the woman is 8 weeks or less. The woman first receives the oral dose of mifepristone at the abortion clinic or medical center. The mifepristone blocks progesterone, which causes the uterine lining to break down. Within 24-48 hours, she takes misoprostol either orally or inserted vaginally. (This part of the abortion is at home.) The misoprostol will cause contractions and the expulsion of the preborn baby; this may take a few hours or a few days.
5-10% of medical abortions fail.
