Mifegymiso is the Canadian brand name for the medication combination Mifepristone and Misoprostol, commonly known as the abortion pill. Mifegymiso has been available for over 30 years and was approved by Health Canada in July 2015. It is the World Health Organization recommended method of medical abortion (abortion by pill).
Making the abortion pill available to everyone in Canada is an important step in ensuring access to the best possible sexual and reproductive health care.
