When should I begin birth control?, You can become pregnant again right after your pregnancy ends. If you do not want to become pregnant again, start using birth control as soon as your pregnancy ends, or before you start having sexual intercourse again.
Do not take any other prescription or over-the-counter medicines (including herbal medicines or supplements) at any time during the treatment period without first asking your healthcare provider about them because they may interfere with the treatment. But Ask your healthcare provider about what medicines you can take for pain and other side effects.
Mifeprex (mifepristone) is a synthetic steroid indicated for the medical termination of intrauterine pregnancy through 49 days of pregnancy. Mifeprex Tablets are available in generic form.
Expected side effects of Mifeprex include:
Other side effects of Mifeprex include:
Mifeprex is available in 200 mg strength tablets. Treatment with Mifeprex and misoprostol for the termination of pregnancy requires three office visits. Patients must understand the necessity of completing the treatment schedule, including a follow-up visit approximately 14 days after taking Mifeprex.
Mifeprex may cause serious side effects. See “What is the most important information I should know about Mifeprex?”
Cramping and bleeding. Cramping and vaginal bleeding are expected with this treatment. Usually, these symptoms mean that the treatment is working. But sometimes you can get cramping and bleeding and still be pregnant. This is why you must follow up with your healthcare provider approximately 7 to 14 days after taking Mifeprex. See “How should I take Mifeprex?” for more information on your follow-up assessment. If you are not already bleeding after taking Mifeprex, you probably will begin to bleed once you take misoprostol, the medicine you take 24 to 48 hours after Mifeprex. Bleeding or spotting can be expected for an average of 9 to 16 days and may last for up to 30 days. Your bleeding may be similar to, or greater than, a normal heavy period. You may see blood clots and tissue. This is an expected part of passing the pregnancy.
The most common side effects of Mifeprex treatment include nausea, weakness, fever/chills, vomiting, headache, diarrhea, and dizziness. Your provider will tell you how to manage any pain or other side effects. But These are not all the possible side effects of Mifeprex.
Call your healthcare provider for medical advice about any side effects that bother you or do not go away. You may report side effects to the FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088.

The FDA does not have the authority to regulate the prices of drug products in the United States. Manufacturers, distributors, and retailers establish the prices. Additionally, the FDA has no input into or legal control over whether an insurance company does or does not cover the cost of a drug. Insurance coverage is a decision made by an insurance provider. This information applies equally to Mifeprex and the approved generic version of Mifeprex.
