Mifegest Kit – Mifepristone and Misoprostol Pack

Mifegest Kit belongs to a group of gynaecological medication called ‘Abortifacient’ used for the medical termination of the pregnancy before 63 days after the first day of the last menses period. Mifegest Kit also works in the second trimester of the pregnancy.

Mifegest Kit contains two medicines, namely: Mifepristone and Misoprostol. Mifepristone is an anti-hormone (anti-progestogen) that acts by blocking the effects of progesterone hormone required in women to continue the pregnancy. On the other hand, Misoprostol is a prostaglandin that increases womb’s (uterus) contraction and dilates the cervix, thereby expelling the pregnancy.

Thus, Mifegest Kit together cause termination of pregnancy and must be used one after the other for medical abortion.

A medical abortion generally involves 2-3 visits to a doctor or clinic, which includes giving of medicines and then confirmation of termination of pregnancy. Following are the schedule involved in medical abortion:

• Day 1: Medical counselling and examination where doctor instructs to take 1 tablet of mifepristone (200 mcg)
• Day 2 to 3: You must return to the hospital/clinic 36 to 48 hours after taking the first dose of mifepristone. Your doctor will tell you about this. The tablet of misoprostol (800 mcg) will be now given either orally or vaginally.
• Day 7 to 14: Doctor will confirm and make sure whether the medical abortion has been completed or not. If the abortion is not complete, you might require more follow-up visits.

You may experience nausea, uterine cramps, vomiting, diarrhoea, infection following abortion, dizziness, and uterine bleeding in some cases. Most of these side effects of Mifegest Kit subside with time. But if vaginal bleeding does not stop, please visit the doctor immediately, as it requires immediate medical attention.

Mifegest Kit should not be stopped abruptly without consulting the doctor as it may lead to incomplete abortion. Inform your doctor before starting Mifegest Kit if you have or ever had an ectopic pregnancy (when the womb grows in the fallopian tube), using an intrauterine device, or you are breastfeeding, any bleeding disorder or heart problem. Do not do strenuous activities like running, heavy exercise, or driving to avoid excessive bleeding. The doctor will also check with ultrasound if the absorption is complete as no bleeding does not mean that abortion is complete.

Medical abortion for unwanted pregnancy.

Mifegest Kit contains Mifepristone and Misoprostol. Mifepristone works by blocking the effect of progesterone (female hormone), needed to maintain a pregnancy. In the absence of progesterone, the lining of the uterus breaks down as it does every month during the menstrual cycle, and the growth of pregnancy is stopped. It takes approximately 24-48 hours for Mifegest Kit to show effect. Once it starts acting, you will experience uterine bleeding. But no uterine bleeding does not mean that the abortion is complete. On the other hand, second medicine is Misoprostol, that is a prostaglandin analogue, which helps in increasing the uterine contractions and relaxing the cervix. Thus Together Mifegest Kit terminates the state of pregnancy. Misoprostol should be taken at least 24-36 hours after taking mifepristone either orally or vaginally. This is a non-surgical method which is 90% successful.

Like all medicines, Mifegest Kit also has some side effects, though it is not mandatory for everyone to experience them. You may experience nausea, uterine cramps, vomiting, diarrhea, dizziness, infection following abortion, and uterine bleeding in some cases. Most of these side effects of Mifegest Kit subside with time. But if your vaginal bleeding does not, please visit the doctor immediately, and it requires immediate medical attention.buy mifegest kit online usa
