Misoprostol Tablet is a combination of two prescription drugs: misoprostol and mifepristone. What leads to an early termination? Mifepristone inhibits the effects of progesterone, a substance that is typical of women. Which is necessary to sustain the pregnancy? Without it, a hormone in the lining of the uterus (womb) is destroyed, just way it is during the menstrual cycle, and the growth that comes with pregnancy is prevented. Mifepristone has the potential to cause abortions by intensifying uterine contractions.
