Aglepristone is a synthetic steroidal antiprogestin with abortifacient activity. Aglepristone is used exclusively as an abortifacient in pregnant animals. Aglepristone has been shown to be a safe and effective abortifacient in the second trimester of pregnancy. Aglepristone causes termination of pregnancy and does not cause fetal resorption. During aglepristone treatment, an increase in plasma concentrations of prolactin was observed, while progesterone levels remained unchanged. The use of aglepristone also resulted in early arrest of corpus luteum function and a shortening of the estrus interval[1].
