Background: Termination of early pregnancy has traditionally been done surgically, but agents are now available which can terminate pregnancy if taken orally, vaginally or parenterally. We have used a combination of mifepristone and misoprostol for termination of early pregnancy. Material and Method: Fifty patients having amenorrhoea of upto 56 days with confirmed intrauterine pregnancy, were selected for medical termination of pregnancy. The patients were given tablet mifepristone (200mg) on day 1 and tablet misoprostol (400mcg) on day 3. On day 14, an ultrasound was done to confirm complete abortion. Result: Majority 35 (70%) patients had amenorrhoea between 40 -50 days. The duration of bleeding was less than 5 days in 12%, between 5 -10 days in 56%, 10 -13 days in 16% and greater than 14 days in 16%. In all patients with bleeding of more than 14 days ultrasonography confirmed intrauterine products & a suction evacuation was done. In this series there were no failures. Conclusion : The combination of mifepristone and misoprostol is an effective method for termination of early pregnancy up to 56 days of amenorrhoea.
