Gestapro Tablet 1 Kit belongs to a group of gynaecological medications called ‘Abortifacient’ used for the medical termination of the pregnancy before 63 days after the first day of the last menses period. Gestapro Tablet 1 Kit also works in the second trimester of pregnancy.
Gestapro Tablet 1 Kit contains two medicines, namely: Mifepristone and Misoprostol. Mifepristone is an anti-hormone (anti-progestogen) that blocks the effects of the progesterone hormone required in women to continue the pregnancy. On the other hand, Misoprostol is a prostaglandin that increases the womb’s (uterus) contraction and dilates the cervix, thereby expelling the pregnancy. Thus, Gestapro Tablet 1 Kit together cause termination of pregnancy and must be used one after the other for medical abortion.
A medical abortion generally involves 2-3 visits to a doctor or clinic, which includes giving medicines and then confirmation of termination of pregnancy. Following are the schedule involved in medical abortion:
In some cases, you may experience nausea, uterine cramps, vomiting, diarrhoea, infection following abortion, dizziness, and uterine bleeding. Most of these side effects of Gestapro Tablet 1 Kit subside with time. But if vaginal bleeding does not stop, please visit the doctor immediately, as it requires immediate medical attention.
Gestapro Tablet 1 Kit should not be stopped abruptly without consulting the doctor as it may lead to incomplete abortion. Inform your doctor before starting Gestapro Tablet 1 Kit if you have had an ectopic pregnancy (when the womb grows in the fallopian tube), using an intrauterine device, or you are breastfeeding, any bleeding disorder or heart problem. Do not strenuous activities like running, heavy exercise, or driving to avoid excessive bleeding. The doctor will also check with ultrasound if the absorption is complete as no bleeding does not mean that abortion is complete.
Gestapro Tablet 1 Kit contains Mifepristone and Misoprostol. Mifepristone works by blocking the effect of progesterone (female hormone) needed to maintain a pregnancy. In the absence of progesterone, the lining of the uterus breaks down as it does every month during the menstrual cycle, and the growth of pregnancy is stopped. It takes approximately 24-48 hours for Gestapro Tablet 1 Kit to show effect. Once it starts acting, you will experience uterine bleeding. But no uterine bleeding does not mean that the abortion is complete. On the other hand, the second medicine is Misoprostol, a prostaglandin analogue that helps increase uterine contractions and relaxes the cervix. Thus Together Gestapro Tablet 1 Kit terminates the state of pregnancy. Misoprostol should be taken at least 24-36 hours after taking mifepristone, either orally or vaginally. This is a non-surgical method which is 90% successful.
Do not take Gestapro Tablet 1 Kit if you are allergic to misoprostol and mifepristone, have a heart fitted with an artificial valve, have heart diseases like high blood pressure or high blood cholesterol levels (increased fat in your blood), have asthma, have blood clot problems, have a bleeding disorder, have liver or kidney disease, have anaemia (low haemoglobin) or otherwise malnourished. Taking Gestapro Tablet 1 Kit in these conditions can cause life-threatening conditions in an individual. Gestapro Tablet 1 Kit is known to cause sleepiness, so driving or operating machinery should not be done. If you use contraceptive devices like the intrauterine device (IUD), please remove it before taking Gestapro Tablet 1 Kit. Regular follow-up with the doctor is required for constant monitoring of abortion. If medical termination does not happen or becomes unsuccessful, it should be terminated surgically as it can lead to foetal defects. Your doctor will examine by performing ultrasonography to confirm if the abortion is complete. St John’s Wort (a natural remedy used to treat mild depression) grapefruit juice should not be taken when taking Gestapro Tablet 1 Kit as it is known to interact.
