Description

Mifepristone Tablets are a drug medication under the branding of FIBROREG-M and are used to abort a pregnancy inside the mother’s womb. It is effective up to 10 weeks of pregnancy and is used to cause abortion in the early stages of pregnancy. This medication can be taken solely, but different drugs are also used with mifepristone in some cases. Note this medication is not viable for abortion outside the womb and may cause severe bleeding. This bleeding is observed in an ectopic pregnancy which is outside the womb. Therefore this medication should be taken under the supervision of a healthcare professional.

Mifepristone works by suppressing or blocking the levels of progesterone, a hormone in females necessary for a healthy pregnancy. By decreasing the levels of progesterone, the pregnancy is no longer viable for an extended period and, therefore, induces abortion in the mother. Consequently, it is essential to know that the pregnancy is still feasible inside the womb, as this medication is not meant to cause abortion outside the womb. Scientifically, it takes more than ten weeks for a pregnancy to reach the ectopic.
