Extract
Medically induced abortion rather than surgical abortion has many advantages and could improve access to abortion in Canada . . . In December 1993 I received permission from the University of British Columbia Ethics Committee to start a pilot study of abortion induced with methotrexate and misoprostol; the study is under way. I would like to hear from other physicians who may be interested in this method.
