Mifegest Kit is used for medically terminating an intrauterine pregnancy up to 63 days (about 9 weeks) from the last menstrual period.
🩺 Uses of Mifegest Kit
- It is indicated for abortion within the first 63 days of pregnancy.
- It combines mifepristone, which blocks progesterone to stop pregnancy growth, and misoprostol, which induces uterine contractions to expel the pregnancy.
🏥 Administration Guidelines
- First, take one 200 mg tablet of mifepristone orally under medical supervision.
- After 36 to 48 hours, take misoprostol 800 mcg either orally or vaginally as directed by your doctor.
- The process usually requires 2–3 visits: initial dosing, misoprostol administration, and follow-up confirmation.
⚠️ Precautions and Contraindications
- Not to be used in cases of ectopic pregnancy, chronic adrenal failure, allergy to ingredients, or if you have certain bleeding disorders.
- Inform your doctor if breastfeeding, using an intrauterine device, or have heart conditions.
- Avoid strenuous activity, driving, or heavy exercise during the process.
🩺 Common Side Effects
- Uterine cramps, vaginal bleeding, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, dizziness, and risk of infection.
- Heavy or prolonged bleeding requires immediate medical attention.
🩺 Follow-up and Monitoring
- Essential to attend follow-up visits 7 to 14 days after treatment to confirm the abortion is complete, typically with ultrasound.
- Never stop treatment without consulting the doctor to avoid incomplete abortion and complications.
Please consult a gynecologist for personalized guidance and safe use of Mifegest Kit. In case of emergency symptoms like severe bleeding or pain, seek immediate medical help.
