Frequently asked Questions about L Pill Tablet

Question over 4 years ago

Can L Pill be taken without mifepristone?

Dr. Roshni Poonja MBBS , General Physician, Internal Medicine

Yes, L Pill alone can be taken without mifepristone it has been found to give apparently good results but it is recommended to take L Pill 36-48 hours after taking mifepristone. This combination helps not only preventing excessive bleeding but it also provides better results as compared to misoprostol alone.

Question over 5 years ago

How does L Pill work?

Dr. Suhas Bhargav MBBS , General Physician

L Pill contains misoprostol which is a prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) analogue that possesses antisecretory property that inhibits gastric acid secretion. NSAIDs (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) inhibits the synthesis of prostaglandins which leads to diminishing bicarbonate and mucus secretion which contributes to ulceration. L Pill has mucosal protective properties that protect the stomach tissues from the damage caused by the stomach acid through decreased acid secretion and mucosal protective action. It induces labour by causing relaxation of cervix uteri (which is the lower part of the uterus). In the treatment of postpartum hemorrhage L Pill works by causing contractions of smooth muscle fibres of the myometrium (middle layer of the uterine wall).
