Abstract

In France, mifepristone (Myfegine [RU 486]), an oral antiprogesterone, has been available in hospitals since 1990. It is administered to women requesting abortion during early pregnancy (amenorrhea <50 days) together with an intravenous injection or vaginal suppository of a prostaglandin analogue. 1 We describe the first case of toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) after administration of mifepristone and gemeprost, a prostaglandin analogue.
