While Mifepristone, the so-called "abortion pill," has been declared generally safe to use, nearly all women who use mifepristone and misoprostol have reported experiencing the following adverse reactions: Abdominal pain or cramping (96%); nausea (61%); headache (31%), vomiting (26%); diarrhea (20%); dizziness (12%), and; uterine hemorrhage (5%). In most clinical trials long before the approval of this abortion pill, almost all women who applied the abortion procedure experienced the mentioned side effects. As a consequence, about one out of 14 women using RU-486 had experienced severe bleeding requiring medical attention. Since its approval, the drug had been implicated with the death of 14 women in America. Here are other details worth noting: Two women died after a rupture on ectopic pregnancies. About eight women went through a systemic bacterial infection. Four women died from overdose and toxic shock. Others who survived had faced severe complications, including heart attack. Other reported incidents and reactions from taking this abortion pill can be noted during Canada's clinical test of the drug in 2001, when a Canadian woman died of septic shock that resulted from a clostridium infection. In 2011, a Portuguese girl also died of a septic shock just five days after taking the abortion pill. A total of five non-American women have died resulting from taking mifepristone. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration have recently required special distribution rules for RU-486. They considered the manufacturer's information and warning for physicians that explains that the drug should be supplied only to licensed physicians who signed a Prescriber's Agreement. With Mifeprex being a prescription drug, it should not be available to the public even through licensed pharmacies. Moreover the label bears a caution that this only be administered by medical professionals. Considering all of these medical concerns, most clinics have thoroughly explained that all administering the drug will definitely be observed by their medical staff. Furthermore, the World Health Organization (WHO) significantly has observed that about 95 out of 100 women have had abortion successfully with these pills, if taken within 9 weeks of gestation. Likewise, the complications brought up by RU-486 have deemed to be manageable and can be treated likewise. Considering this information, you would be able to learn more about the proper way of taking this particular drug and physicians about the so-called "abortion drug" should be able to explain this to you. Women around the world are generally concerned about the medical complications of the drug more than the secondary emotional and socio-political effects. The Orlando Women's Center is a women's health institution that treats women compassionately and respectfully without judgment. They are a certified Mifepristone abortion pill clinic, and are recommended for those considering a non-invasive abortion.
