Culture Apothecary with Alex Clark · An OBGYN On What The Abortion Pill Actually Does To Your Body | Dr. Christina Francis, MD · 20 Feb 2026 podcast

There are side effects that come along with taking really large doses of misoprostol.

They can get horrible diarrhea.

They could have fevers.

They could have even more severe consequences, especially if they have other health conditions.

So as you said, there's no control.

And again, I want to make the point that even people that think that abortion should be legal or that think that women should have the right to choose to have an abortion should agree that this is medical malpractice.

This is substandard care that should not be being delivered to women.

This is not empowering to women.

It is not actual health care.

It's medical malpractice, and there really needs to be a stop to it.

Not that we are aware of, not that they have published.

Supposedly, under the REMS program, the Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy, so this is a program that is applied to only really a few dozen drugs in the U.S., drugs that have the possibility for really significant side effects and complications.

This is put into place to try to minimize those complications.

So things like chemotherapy drugs would be part of a REMS program.

Mifepristone is part of the REMS program.

As part of that, they are supposed to be doing ongoing evaluation.

And in fact, Commissioner McCary in an interview that he did said this, said as part of the REMS program, ongoing evaluations are done so that if a new side effect that we didn't know about before starts to pop up, that we'll see that.

But my question is, we haven't been collecting any complications other than death since 2016 on Mifepristone.

So how on earth would we know if a new complication has occurred?

Is that normal?
