  1. The majority of abortions in the #US are obtained through #medications, usually a combination of #mifepristone & a second drug, #misoprostol. Their availability has blunted the impact of #abortion bans that most #Republican-led states have started enforcing since a 2022 #SCOTUS ruling that overturned #RoeVWade & allowed for state bans.

  5. Facebook released private messages to law enforcement after a woman took abortion drugs while 28 weeks pregnant.

    When the abortion drugs arrived, there was thunder that made her jump out of her seat. (Perhaps God was trying to warn her.) But she did it any way and then she insisted on burning the dead baby. She said she was looking forward to wearing jeans again.

    Czym jest mife i miso?

    ❤️ Mifepriston
    Blokuje działanie progesteronu, hormonu odpowiedzialnego za utrzymanie ciąży. Jest to jeden z dwóch leków do aborcji farmakologicznej (tabletkami). Ten, który pierwszego dnia połykamy i popijamy wodą.

    Mifepriston potrzebuje czasu żeby zacząć działać, dlatego w ciążach do 12 tyg. odczekujemy minimum 24h z wzięciem misoprostolu, w ciążach po 12 tyg. wydłużamy ten czas do 36h.

    Większość osób po przyjęciu mifepristonu nie odczuwa żadnych jego skutków, co nie znaczy, że lek nie działa. Czasem może wystąpić lekkie plamienie albo niewielkie mdłości.

    ❤️ Misoprostol
    Zmiękcza szyjkę i wywołuje skurcze macicy, które prowadzą do wydalenia zarodka lub płodu wraz z krwią i skrzepami. Jednocześnie działa przeciwkrwotocznie, bo obkurcza naczynia krwionośne.

    Misoprostol działa poronnie gdy wchłonie się przez śluzówkę, dlatego najpierw trzymamy go przez 30 minut w buzi (pod językiem/między dziąsłem a policzkiem), następnie połykykamy. Można go również zaaplikować dopochwowo.

    ℹ️ Jeśli posiadasz zestaw aborcyjny - mifepriston i misoprostol, to najpierw połykasz mifepriston, w ciążach poniżej 12 tyg. czekasz 24h i używasz 4 tabletek misoprostolu. Po 12 tyg. czas między mife a miso wydłużasz do 36h, i używasz 12 tabletek misoprostolu, aplikując po 2 tabletki w dawkach co 3 godziny.

    ℹ️ Są to bardzo bezpieczne leki, rekomendowane przez Światową Organizację Zdrowia do samodzielnego użycia w domu. Zamówienie ich np. z womenhelp.org na własny użytek jest legalne i nic Ci z te nie grozi.

  14. "Importantly, there is no scientific reason to restrict #mifepristone and #misoprostol in this manner... these medications are nonaddictive & extremely safe — as safe or safer than commonly prescribed drugs such as penicillin and Viagra. And their benefits are lifesaving...

    This #law is a warning call of what is to come...

    All of these #antiabortion efforts, cloaked in the guise of patient safety, do nothing but put patients’ lives at risk."

  18. "This is always how the anti-abortion movement operates. It’s palatable, and been historically successful, for those activists and allied politicians to paint abortion as a singular, siloed-off procedure that exists only in Planned Parenthood clinics. It’s easy, then, to demonize the supposed distinct set of women (and differently identifying people) who use those services too."

"It is on the World Health Organization’s list of essential medications, a list containing those medications that are the most effective and safe to meet a health care system’s most important needs. After antiabortion activists targeted the drug, Louisiana governor Jeff Landry signed a law reclassifying it as a controlled dangerous substance. The reclassification means that the drug will no longer be easily available on obstetric hemorrhage carts."

  34. Fucking murdering morons

    These "pro-life" theofascist shitbags are murdering #women

    They don't know, don't care

    #Misoprostol might be used for #abortion

    So they just yank it out of emergency rooms

    Even though it's used in postpartum hemorrhaging and other emergencies

    It's like forcing people to endure surgery in writhing pain without fentanyl, because someone might use fentanyl illicitly

    Regardless of abortion being legal or not (and it should be legal)

    Morons!

  36. "Because a president has enormous power to influence federal agencies that oversee abortion policy, a potential Trump administration could unilaterally choose to do what the Supreme Court did not: impose strict restrictions on mifepristone, one of two drugs used in over 60 percent of abortions — or even move to take the drug off the market entirely."

  37. "Because it was a standing decision, ... there was no discussion of the merits of the challenges raised by the doctors and associations. So, there was no Supreme Court ruling on Thursday that the FDA’s rules are proper — and no ruling about the status and interpretation of the 1873 anti-vice law known as the Comstock Act."

  38. "A cynical person might think that the conservative Justices (who routinely ignore ‘standing’ doctrine when it suits them) did this to keep the entire issue of reproductive rights out of the election cycle (where vast majority reject what they are doing), so they can take a hatchet to them after November."

  41. "The Supreme Court today unanimously decided that the antiabortion groups trying to get the drug mifepristone banned did not have standing to bring the case. This preserves access to mifepristone, commonly used to induce medical abortions, but as legal observers point out, the court ruled only on standing, meaning that others, who do have standing, could bring a similar case."

  43. By classifying #Abortion pills #mifepristone & #misoprostol as #ScheduleIVDrugs —a category of medicines w/potential for #DrugAbuse or #DrugDependence ( #addiction ) that includes Ambien, Valium, Xanax, & others— lawmakers in #Louisiana say they aim to curb the *illicit distribution* of the drugs. But the #FDA does not consider the 2 #medications to have any potential for abuse or dependence, & yrs of research overwhelmingly show both pills to be #safe.

  44. #Louisiana #Republicans are busy classifying #mifepristone and #misoprostol as Level IV controlled substances. That puts them on par with some illegal narcotics, and criminalizes their possession with prison time.

    The law exempts pregnant women from prosecution, but will make Louisiana the only state to classify these safe and effective drugs as "dangerous drugs of abuse."
