Summary
In the current study, we want to evaluate the prophylactic use of ibuprofen versus a placebo
for medical abortion by mifepristone and misoprostol, at a gestational age of up to 7 weeks,
in regard to the effect on pain relief and the overall procedure success.
expected results:
The prophylactic use of NSAIDs could offer significant pain relief and thereby a reduction in
the need for additional pain relievers compared to the placebo, without interfering with the
outcome of medical abortion
