Medications

Mifepristone, also known as "Mifeprex" or "RU-486," blocks the action of the natural hormone progesterone on the uterus. This causes the lining of the uterus to shed, as it does during a period, and stops the growth of the pregnancy. Misoprostol, also known as "Cytotec," causes the uterus to contract and initiates bleeding and cramping. A medical abortion results when mifepristone is combined with misoprostol.
