Introduction
Patients who experience severe vomiting after taking mifepristone tablets may discontinue the medication and switch to alternative drugs for treatment. They may also consider undergoing gastrointestinal examination and use appropriate medications. During this period, patients should avoid greasy, raw, or cold foods. Prolonged vomiting might be caused by gastrointestinal disorders such as gastritis or gastric ulcers, and medical evaluation and treatment at a hospital are necessary.

Mifepristone tablets are anti-pregnancy drugs that can be used in combination with prostaglandin agents to terminate pregnancies within 49 days of missed menstruation. Some women may experience mild nausea and vomiting after taking this medication, which generally does not require special treatment and resolves spontaneously after stopping the drug.
Prolonged vomiting may be caused by gastrointestinal disorders such as gastritis or gastric ulcers, requiring medical evaluation and treatment. For patients experiencing vomiting after taking mifepristone, in addition to using medications to relieve symptoms, it is important to avoid getting chilled or overexerting themselves. It is also advisable to avoid eating puffed snacks or drinking carbonated beverages, as these can further irritate the stomach. Drinking warm vegetable soup appropriately during this time can help replenish essential vitamins and trace elements, promoting gastrointestinal recovery.
