1/ I would like to clear up some misinformation that I keep seeing re: medication abortion pills mifepristone & misoprostol. I keep seeing it reported that these pills can only be taken up to 10 weeks of pregnancy, but there’s more to the story
2/ Mife is fda approved up to 10 weeks but robust data has shown that mife plus miso or miso alone are medically safe & effective to take even after 12 weeks of pregnancy. We use plenty of meds "off-label" safely. The WHO has guidelines & references on this.
3/ So when ppl see things like "medication abortion pills can only be taken up to 10 weeks of pregnancy" they often think something medically dangerous will definitely happen to them, which is not medically accurate & that they have no other options.
4/ People deserve medically accurate information so they can make the best choices for themselves in the context of their situation. If one has legal questions about taking medication abortion pills contact the Repro Legal Helpline @ifwhenhow 844-868-2812
5/ If one has medical questions about taking abortion pills contact @MA_Hotline 1-833-246-2633 via text or call to speak with a licensed clinician. In these scary & confusing times, let’s keep spreading medically accurate information. #ReproductiveFreedom
