This study involved 72 pregnancies admitted to the Obsteo-gynecological Department of Hue Central Hospital between September/1995 to January/1998. The results suggested that misoprotol is effective for termination of pregnancy. Successful rate of this method is higher than that of oxytocin method in all subjects. Mean dose is 3.2+/-1.3 tables (Cytotect table of 200mg). Complications are infrequent.
