Mifegyne Mechanism:
Mifegyne works by blocking progesterone, a hormone necessary for pregnancy to continue. Without progesterone, the uterine lining breaks down, preventing the pregnancy from progressing. Misoprostol is then used to expel the pregnancy tissue from the uterus, completing the process. The combined effect of Mifegyne and Misoprostol terminates the pregnancy effectively.
Mifegyne (Mifepristone) tablets are used for medical termination of early pregnancy by blocking progesterone, a hormone essential for pregnancy continuation. In combination with misoprostol, it is effective within the first 10 weeks (70 days) of gestation. Safe, reliable, and FDA-approved for early pregnancy termination. Learn about usage, dosage, and precautions.
Mifegyne Dose:
Mifegyne is taken orally with water under medical supervision. Typically, three pills are taken on the first day. After two days, Misoprostol is administered, which induces vaginal bleeding for 9-10 days, helping to fully expel the pregnancy tissue.
Mifegyne Precautions:
Avoid alcohol and smoking during the treatment. Rest is essential, and spicy or fatty foods may reduce the effectiveness of the medication. Grapes may increase side effects, and other medications may interfere with the process. Avoid heavy work and maintain a healthy diet.

  - Liver, heart, lung, kidney issues, or diabetes.
- Allergies to medications, foods, or other substances.
- Planning pregnancy or are currently breastfeeding.
- Taking any other medications (prescribed or non-prescribed).
Mifegyne Warnings:
Do not take Mifegyne if you have a suspected ectopic pregnancy, kidney or liver damage, adrenal problems, allergies to prostaglandins, or are undergoing corticosteroid treatment. Consult with a doctor if you have excessive bleeding or other related concerns.
Mifegyne Side Effects:
Seek immediate medical help if you experience breathing difficulties or rapid heartbeats. Common side effects may include fatigue, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, weakness, abdominal pain, and loss of appetite. These are typical and usually subside on their own.
