"What is the most common abortion medication used in the United States?

The most common medication used in the United States is RU486 which is also known as Mifeprex, Mifepristone, Abortion Pill, or French pill. RU486 was approved by the FDA in 2001 specifically for termination of pregnancy. It works by altering the blood flow to uterine lining of the uterus as well as causing an increase in the intrauterine pressure that leads to inadequate blood flow to the pregnancy and uterine contractions which leads to spontaneous vaginal bleeding and miscarriage. There is approximately a 40 percent chance of the loss of pregnancy with the use of RU486 alone if used in pregnancies less than 6 weeks gestation. The RU486 pill has been found to be very safe and highly effective with a 96 percent success rate of termination of pregnancy up to 9 weeks gestation and near 100 percent for pregnancies less than 6 weeks gestation. Up to how many weeks can the Abortion Pill Procedure (Medical Abortion, RU486) be performed?

Most Physicians in the U.S. do not perform the Abortion Pill Procedure after 10 weeks from the last menstrual period. European medical literature indicates that the Abortion Pill procedure can be safely performed up to 13 to 14 weeks on an outpatient basis; however, there is a higher incidence of failure. There are Physicians in our facility that may allow a patient who meets certain criteria to have the Abortion Pill procedure performed on an out-patient basis up to 14 weeks.

We are able to perform the Abortion Pill Procedure from 3 to 24 weeks in 24 hours or less in 99% of cases with minimal to no complications. The process is highly efficient, safe and effective."
