Is Mifepristone Safer Than Viagra? Yes*
Mifepristone, a drug used for medical abortions, is under fire in the United States, with critics claiming it isn't safe to use. Abortion rights advocates often revert to a funny talking point to argue for its safety, but how accurate is that talking point? Oh, it's totally safe, though.

Mifepristone ruling is latest in series of moves to curb abortion access
On Friday, a federal judge in Texas invalidated FDA approval of mifepristone, threatening access to the most common abortion pill in the country. Earlier this week, legislatures in Idaho, Kansas and Florida moved to further restrict abortion access in those states. Sarah Varney, senior correspondent for Kaiser Health News, joins Ali Rogin to discuss the latest developments.

How Do Abortion Pills Work? | Mifepristone and Misoprostol
How do abortion pills work? Mifepristone and Misoprostol work together to end and expel a pregnancy. They work by effecting the hormones that are necessary for a pregnancy. You can acquire them via telemedicine or at a medical clinic. There is some pain or discomfort involved similar to strong cramps or a miscarriage. Speak with a medical professional before making any decisions regarding abortion, Mifepristone, or Misoprostol.

A brief history of the abortion pill mifepristone
Mifepristone was approved by the Food and Drug Administration in 2000. Administered in the first 10 weeks of pregnancy, it works by blocking the hormone progesterone, which the uterus needs to support a fertilized egg. It’s taken along with the drug misoprostol, which causes uterine contractions that expel the pregnancy. A large body of research has shown the medication to be safe and overwhelmingly effective.

Lesson 4: How do I take mifepristone and misoprostol to have an abortion before 13 weeks?
The information about an abortion with pills in this video is intended for pregnancies less than 13 weeks. Pregnancies that are 13 weeks or more need a different approach.
For an abortion with mifepristone and misoprostol, you will need to take one 200mg pill of mifepristone and four to eight 200mcg pills of misoprostol. You’ll also want to have a painkiller on hand, like ibuprofen, to help reduce pain. Acetaminophen and paracetamol do not work for pain during an abortion so they are not recommended.
Here’s how mifepristone and misoprostol are taken together to end a pregnancy before 13 weeks:
Step 1: Swallow one 200mg pill of mifepristone with water.
Step 2: Wait 24-48 hours.
Step 3: Place 4 misoprostol pills (200 mcg each) under your tongue and hold them there for 30 minutes as they dissolve. You should not speak or eat for these 30 minutes, so it is good to be someplace quiet where you will not be disturbed. After 30 minutes, drink some water and swallow everything that is left of the pills. This is also a good time to take a painkiller like ibuprofen, as the cramping will start soon.
You should begin bleeding and cramping within 3 hours of using the 4 misoprostol pills.
Step 4: 24 hours after taking the 4 misoprostol pills, if you didn’t start to bleed, or if you are unsure that the abortion worked, place 4 more pills of misoprostol under your tongue. Hold them there for 30 minutes as they dissolve. After 30 minutes, drink some water and swallow everything that is left of the pills.
If mifepristone is available in your setting, then you can skip the next video and go directly to “What will I experience during an abortion with pills?”
