Abstract

When compared to the use of 12 hourly 200 microg vaginal misoprostol on its own, the addition of a single dose of 5 mg did not significantly increase the abortion or delivery rate in pregnancy termination at 13-29 weeks gestation. All patients were given intravenous syntocinon at 30 mU/min from the first dose of misoprostol onwards.
