Q: taking misoprostol insertion inthe vagina before taking mefistron ? will it still be effective?

: It is not perfect, success rate of mifepristone alone is 87% by a US study but no study has been done such in your case, i.e. taking misosprotol before mifepristone. For a complete abortion, you may need another dose of misoprostol 24 hours after taking mifepristone.
