How it Works:
Contrapill 200 mg/200 mcg Kit is a combination of two medicines: Mifepristone and Misoprostol which causes abortion. Mifepristone blocks the effects of progesterone a natural female hormone that is needed for the pregnancy to sustain. Without this hormone the lining of the uterus (womb) breaks down as it does during a menstrual period and stops the growth of the pregnancy. Misoprostol increases contractions of the uterus to cause abortion.

Quick Tips:

• Use caution while driving or doing anything that requires concentration as it can cause dizziness and sleepiness
• It does not affect fertility. Use contraception to avoid pregnancy
• For pregnancy termination: Take it no later than 63 days after the first day of your last menstrual period.
• Take Misoprostol 36 – 48 hours after taking Mifepristone.
• Rest for at least 3 hours after taking the Misoprostol.
