Warnings/Precautions

Concerns related to adverse effects:

• Bacterial infections: [Canadian Boxed Warning]: Cases of serious bacterial infection, including very rare cases of fatal septic shock, have been reported following the use of mifepristone/misoprostol. Some patients presented without fever, with or without abdominal pain, but with leukocytosis with a marked left shift, tachycardia, hemoconcentration, and general malaise. A high index of suspicion is needed to rule out sepsis (from eg, Clostridium sordellii) if a patient reports abdominal pain or discomfort or general malaise (including weakness, nausea, vomiting or diarrhea) more than 24 hours after taking misoprostol. A sustained fever of ≥38°C (≥100.4°F), abdominal pain, or pelvic tenderness should prompt evaluation.

• Bleeding: [Canadian Boxed Warning]: Prolonged heavy bleeding may be a sign of incomplete abortion or other complications; prompt medical or surgical intervention may be needed. Patients must seek immediate medical attention. The manufacturer cites soaking through 2 thick sanitary pads per hour for 2 consecutive hours as an example of excessive bleeding. Use with caution in patients with preexisting anemia; use is not recommended in patients with severe anemia (has not been studied).

• CNS effects: May cause dizziness which may impair physical or mental abilities; patients must be cautioned about performing tasks that require mental alertness (eg, operating machinery, driving).

• Hypersensitivity reactions: Hypersensitivity reactions (eg, angioedema, anaphylaxis, skin rash) have been reported with mifepristone/misoprostol; in some cases, angioedema occurred within 1 hour of misoprostol administration. Monitor and treat appropriately patients presenting with signs/symptoms of hypersensitivity.

• Skin reactions: [Canadian Boxed Warning]: Serious skin reactions, including toxic epidermal necrolysis and acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis, have been reported with mifepristone and misoprostol treatment; discontinue treatment immediately in patients with signs and symptoms of skin reactions, re-treatment is not recommended.

Disease-related concerns:

• Adrenal insufficiency: Use with caution in acute adrenal failure (has not been studied). Mifepristone antagonizes glucocorticoid activity; adjustment in adrenal replacement therapy may be necessary.

• Asthma: Bronchospasm may occur with some prostaglandins and prostaglandin analogues; use caution in patients with a history of asthma. Use is contraindicated in uncontrolled asthma.

• Cardiovascular disease: Serious cardiovascular events have been reported following prostaglandin administration (including misoprostol). Use is not recommended in patients with cardiovascular disease (has not been studied). Use with caution in patients with hypertension, diabetes, or who are over the age of 35 years and heavy smokers.

• Diabetes: Use is not recommended in patients with diabetes (has not been studied).

• Malnutrition: Use is not recommended if patient is malnourished (has not been studied).

• Seizure disorder: Prostaglandins and prostaglandin analogues have been associated with seizures; patients with a history of seizure disorder should be monitored closely.

Special populations:

• Pediatrics: Not indicated in patients prior to puberty. Adverse events (eg, diarrhea, vomiting, pain) occurred more frequently in patients 15 to 17 years.

Other warnings/precautions:

• Appropriate use: Obtain patient's written consent, exclude ectopic pregnancy and confirm gestational age by an appropriate method prior to use. Consider patient's ability to comply with the requirements of therapy and the need for follow up evaluation prior to administering mifepristone/misoprostol. Ensure patient has access to emergency medical treatment for 2 weeks after mifepristone administration.

• Confirmation of terminated pregnancy: Confirmation of pregnancy termination by clinical exam, human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), and/or ultrasound must be made 7 to 14 days following treatment. In clinical trials, treatment failure occurred in 2.7% to 5.1% of cases prior to 63 days of gestation. The rate of failure increases with advancing age. Manufacturer recommends termination of pregnancy by another method to manage ongoing pregnancy after medical abortion. Preventive measures to prevent Rh immunization must be taken prior to surgical abortion.

• Ectopic pregnancy: Use is contraindicated in patients with ectopic pregnancy; exclude ectopic pregnancy prior to administration. Perform ultrasound prior to initiating therapy if ectopic pregnancy is suspected. Health care providers should be alert for signs/symptoms which may be related to undiagnosed ectopic pregnancy in any patient undergoing a medical abortion; some symptoms of a medical abortion may be similar to those of a ruptured ectopic pregnancy.

• Experienced physician: [Canadian Boxed Warning]: Patients should be followed by a health care professional 7 to 14 days after taking mifepristone to confirm safety and complete pregnancy termination. For administration only by health care providers with knowledge of medical abortion and/or who have completed the Mifegymiso educational training.

• Intrauterine device: Remove any intrauterine device (IUD) before treatment begins; use with an IUD is contraindicated.

• Patient education: Patients undergoing treatment should be instructed to bring their information guide with them when obtaining treatment from an emergency room or health care provider that did not prescribe the medication initially in order to identify that they are undergoing a medical abortion. The benefits and risks of treatment (including bleeding, infection, or incomplete abortion) should be discussed with patient prior to therapy.

Reproductive Considerations

This medication is used to terminate pregnancy. [Canadian Boxed Warning]: Patients should be advised of their immediate return to fertility after mifepristone/misoprostol administration. To avoid the potential exposure of a subsequent pregnancy to mifepristone and misoprostol, it is recommended that conception be avoided during the next menstrual cycle. Reliable contraceptive methods should therefore commence as early as possible. During clinical trials, pregnancies occurred between embryo expulsion and the return of menses.

Also refer to individual monographs for additional information.

Pregnancy Considerations

This medication is used to terminate pregnancy.

[Canadian Boxed Warning]: Patients should be counselled that once treatment is initiated, there are risks of embryotoxicity if the pregnancy is not terminated. Both mifepristone and misoprostol are embryotoxic and have been associated with fetal abnormalities.

[Canadian Boxed Warning]: Prolonged heavy bleeding may be a sign of incomplete abortion or other complications; prompt medical or surgical intervention may be needed. Patients must seek immediate medical attention.

Also refer to individual monographs for additional information.

Breastfeeding Considerations

Mifepristone and misoprostol are present in breast milk.

Breastfeeding is not recommended by the manufacturer. Refer to individual monographs for additional information

Monitoring Parameters

Prior to treatment: Confirm pregnancy, estimate gestational age, and determine Rh status; assess hemoglobin and hematocrit if anemia is suspected (ACOG 2020; SOGC [Costescu 2016]). Pregnancy is dated from day 1 of last menstrual period presuming a 28-day cycle.

Following treatment: Clinical exam, human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) testing, and/or ultrasound 7 to 14 days after administration of mifepristone/misoprostol to confirm complete termination of pregnancy; hemoglobin, hematocrit, and red blood cell count in cases of heavy bleeding. Consider CBC in any patient who reports nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea and weakness with or without abdominal pain, and without fever or other signs of infection more than 24 hours after administration of misoprostol. In cases of an uncomplicated medical abortion, a telephone evaluation 1 week after treatment and an in-home pregnancy test 4 weeks after treatment can be done to avoid in-person visits when allowed by local laws. In-person clinical exams should be done when medically indicated or preferred by the patient (ACOG 2020; SOGC [Costescu 2016]).

Mechanism of Action

Mifepristone is a synthetic steroid that competitively binds to the intracellular progesterone receptor, blocking the effects of progesterone. When used for the termination of pregnancy, this leads to contraction-inducing activity in the myometrium. Mifepristone also produce cervical ripening.

Misoprostol is a synthetic prostaglandin E1 analog that induces contractions in the myometrium and relaxation of the cervix.
