I have heard repeatedly that the packet insert for birth control pills says that the pills can be an abortifacient. I cannot, though, find a copy of the insert anywhere. Can one of you either post a PDF of it, or, email me a copy?

Thanks, and God bless.
 
Go to your local library and ask for the Physicians Desk Reference. It will have all the info you want on the different drugs.
 
Here’s ONE…
If you need more, just look up the particular brand on google and find the “physician prescribing information” (or similar wording)…

berlex.bayerhealthcare.com/html/products/pi/fhc/YAZ_PI.pdf?WT.mc_id=www.berlex.com

On the first page you’ll find what you’re looking for:
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
PHARMACODYNAMICS
Oral Contraception
Combination oral contraceptives (COCs) act by suppression of
gonadotropins. Although the primarymechanismof this action is inhibition
of ovulation, other alterations include changes in the cervical
mucus (which increases the difficulty of sperm entry into the uterus)
and the endometrium (which reduces the likelihood of implantation).
“reduces the likelihood of implantation” means CONCEPTION has taken place and the pill alters the lining of the uterus making implantation less likely. The conceived human is then aborted. 😦

HTH! 🙂
 
Thanks, I have the PDR, but what I want is an actual scan or copy of an actual packet insert.

Thanks again…

Many of the various pill manufacturers put the insert on their website. They will be under the heading “patient prescribing information.”

Not all of them include the abortifacient information in the patient prescribing information.

Some manufacturers include it only in the “physicians prescribing information” document. This is also typically available on their website.

Here is one example, the Yaz website.

Patients prescribing information

Physicians prescribing information

In the case of Yaz, the pharmacology is explained in the physician’s document.

In the case of Ortho Tri-Cyclen Lo it is all in one insert document. On their website it is called Full Product Information.
 
The physician’s insert for Mircette can be found online at:

mircette.com/Prescribing_Info.pdf

I suspect that their wording will be common. They do not say it is abortifacient, but that it causes changes in the endometrium, reducing the likelihood of implantation.

It’s near the top, under Clinical Pharmacology.
 
Thanks to all of you.

Is the word “abortifacient” used, specifically and precisely, in any packet insert?

I bet they don’t, but as someone who worked at a pharmacy for a brief time if you go and ask they will give you the package inserts for as many different manufacturers as you want. Well I would have anyway, we always had lots.

Can I ask why you are so interested?

Pax,
 
They are also on their full page magazine ads (one side shows a happy liberated woman, flip side is all the medical info in tiny print). There were a lot in bridal magazines and of course the worse ones like Cosmo.

Pax,
Because we in the anti-contraception crowd can, at times, overplay our cards. I’ve used this argument against the pill for some time, and I just want to be sure that I am, in fact, properly using the argument.

😃 I was figuring your answer would be something like this. Just remember that even if the word isn’t there the definition usually is. You are NOT lying! 😃

Good suggestion with the Mag ads too!

Thanks. I understand that I am not lying, but my point is, many people struggle to find loopholes around things that COULD be clearer, although it might be clear as day to you and me. (Just note, for example, Notre Dame’s contortion act to get around Ex Corde Ecclesia with Obama.)

Agreed!!!

Probably not. Really, it’s semantics. Many non-Pro-Lifers (I’m not limiting it to the hard-core pro-abortionists, but mostly those who are uninformed and wavering - they are the vulnerable ones) are under the impression that “abortion” doesn’t happen until after implantation in the uterus occurs… that the human being (fertilized egg) isn’t considered “a pregnancy” until implantation. They don’t consider the pill’s mechanism of altering the endometrium as something that causes an “abortion” since they don’t believe there is “a pregnancy” until implantation. It’s semantics and word-play.

Ask these questions…
When is the NEW and UNIQUE set of HUMAN DNA formed? (answer: at conception).
What happens to or changes that unique set of Human DNA at the moment of implantation? (answer: nothing. It’s the same human it was at conception)

If they don’t understand that LIFE begins at CONCEPTION then they will never understand that the pill is considered an “abortifacient”.
And there is no motivation for the manufacturers of the pill to put that into their prescribing information, is there??? They write the necessary medical information, but leave the use of “abortifacient” up to the semantics of whether it’s considered a “life” or not.

HTH a little. Good work - keep up the argument! 👍
 
“Many pregnancies are lost spontaneously before a woman recognizes that she is pregnant, and the clinical signs of miscarriage are mistaken for a heavy or late menses.”

yes life begins at conception. i am not arguing that here. i’m just pointing out is that a woman’s body can naturally reject or abort her own baby without her knowledge. this just occurred to be as i was joining my friends for 40 day of prayer for life. i was carrying a sign it had the quote “God knew you before you were formed in the womb.” (paraphrasing here sorry just bear with me). and it just hit me the fact that many pregnancies are lost before a woman knows she is pregnant. i couldn’t stop crying. i kept thinking about all those babies that no one but God knew about not even the mother. i was just so upset i didn’t know what to do so i just prayed.

i know i’m not the first or last person to realize this but i was just filled with so much sadness. i just wanted to share this.

I know this is a sad thought. While it is sad that not even the mother knew, the fact that God DOES know should be a huge comfort. Those children are well taken care of, don’t you think?

Someone once put it this way, “In heaven, God has a beautiful rose garden…and sometimes he just wants a bud”…⭕(:crying:
