How does medication abortion work?
Definition
Medication abortion is an FDA-approved way to end an early pregnancy using two medicines: mifepristone, then misoprostol. It is the most common method of abortion in the United States per Guttmacher, and up to 98% effective when used as directed according to NAF.
Medication abortion uses two medicines. You take mifepristone first, which stops the pregnancy from growing. Six to 48 hours later, you take misoprostol, which causes cramping and bleeding to empty the uterus.

The Member Assistance Program from the Ohio Women's Alliance offers practical support across Ohio, such as rides, hotel stays, and help with gas, childcare, and meals. It doesn't fund treatment.

The business advertises "counseling" or "options education" instead of abortion care
They advertise "free" pregnancy services, including ultrasounds
The address shows up for "abortion near me" searches but it isn't a medical clinic
Staff pressure you to continue the pregnancy, or promote "abortion reversal"
