This medicine will cause the death of the unborn by removing life support from it. It will detach the fetus from the placenta and intrauterine linings. At the time of parturition, this will open the cervix to remove the fetus.

Misoprostol 200mcg pill is the secondary medicine used in MTP kit. This kit has 4 pills of Misoprostol in it. This medicine works by softening the inner linings of the uterus and dilating the cervix. This medicine will remove the dead fetus out of the womb. It will cause bleeding and loss of uterine tissue while removing the fetus out of the body.
