Mifepristone and misoprostol in the induction of labor at term

In this pilot sample, 400 mg of mifepristone was effective in inducing cervical changes and labor. Although there were no adverse effects using oral misoprostol in combination with mifepristone, labor was more difficult to induce in the women who did not respond to mifepristone alone, and these women had a higher operative delivery rate.
