Abstract
Intramuscular administration of 15(s) 15 Methyl Prostaglandin E 2 was successful in terminating twelve of thirteen second trimester pregnancies. Two patients had an incomplete abortion and one case was classified a failure. Side effects were limited to nausea and vomiting in seven cases, diarrhea in eight cases, chills in twelve cases and and elevated temperatures in eight cases. The intramuscular route does offer an advantage in early second trimester abortions and in patients where the intra-amniotic route is not available.
