Blind Item #10

This top drug company couldn't get approval for a second trimester abortion pill in the US, but is selling them as fast as they can make them in India and China.

Well what’s the drug? I only ID’d ethacridine lactate, trade name Abortil in India, but that is being manufactured by Troikaa, which appears to be an Indian owned company.

Zebra Seasoning said...

Bayer's actually a good guess. They've already done suspect stuff.

Originator of RU486 was Hoescht roussel (roussel-uclaf)...a swiss company with fingers in other parts of europe

Mifepristone is now marketed in US and EU by two "single drug" companies...exelgyn and Danco...so that they are boycott proof. Supposedly Danco's pills are made in china but exelgyn leadership ties directly back to roussel.

Neither company, nor any others who have published articles reference a second trimester "pill" but scientific journals point to a combo of misoprostol (cervical ripening prostaglandin) and mifepristone (RU-486 progesterone blocker) as the likely method

about 80% of abortions in China are done using pills, as "medical abortion" (vs surgical abortion and Reportedly - chinese women and girls are "forced" to get "abortions" as late as 8 months

So - Imma say Hoescht roussel

Can you guess how this ties into conspiracy theories?
Switzerland is the center of much evil....

Apotex

Well I can’t find the manufacturer, but apparently you CAN get the stuff on aAmazon. Sheesh. TIL.

I'm with J, I don't see what the problem is except them not being available in the USA.

shakey said...

Of course they are.

Susie Q said...

Hunter, really? With the medicine available today, second semester abortions are babies that can be saved. Yes, some have problems but many of them go on to be healthy with no problems. Plus that is a LOT of trauma for the mother.

Wonka.

mooshki said...

So it will be even easier for people with money to get abortions while poor folks can't. Same old shit.

MountainMama said...

I believe in the right to choose but a second trimester abortion pill? That goes beyond choosing in my mind. Probably shouldn't share that but I am.

Being used for female infanticide.

I REALLY want to avoid debate on this topic, here of all places.

But if you do not know by the third trimester that you didn't want the baby?!

The baby can survive on its own by then.

What people need to realize is this is being given to a lot of women BY FORCE. The husbands do not want a girl infant.

Samantha the 1st said...

The 'one child' policy was abolished a while ago in China, so this is straight-up female infanticide.

These places are destroying their own futures in destroying the girls.

As it stands NOW, there is such a gender imbalance in China that women are trafficked as forced wives from other neighboring countries. Even women within China, already married or not, are stolen and sold as wives to other men.

There are multiple documentaries about wife trafficking online, if anyone is in disbelief or unaware of that.

To continue doing this - killing off the girl babies? Is insanity.

And why is it the population control is aimed squarely at babies who are Asian or 'brown?' But the people who sell pills, will stop at nothing ALLEGEDLY, to profit.

molly said...

Don't think very premature babies should be saved. Know of a young couple who mortgaged everything and spent thousands......when the insurance ran out the baby died. The couple divorced. Have worked in a VA teaching hospital with residents from a local university...people were saved for practice....even if they were in unbearable pain and had no future. America is kinder to their animals than people.

Samantha the 1st said...

molly that's too wide a statement to make based upon one story I think.

Maybe the system in which people go bankrupt over one health crisis could be improved instead.

Not to get into THAT debate here either.

Or maybe they didn't want to die?!

A lot of people live with pain and health issues but do not want to die.

Saved for "practice" on what?

"Had no future" - you are not a believer, then, in the interior life.

Randaleese said...

Good guess..and spelling! I agree!

That's got to be a horrific process.

Colonel Blake said...

Was gonna say Apotex but then Bee chimed in so I'm going with the Swiss.

Boogie Shooze said...

@Samantha agree 💯

^ Thank you Boogie Shooze ^

Second trimester, the blind says.

EponymousAnonymoud said...

Meliticus, i’d Love to see a link on the pill you’re referencing, or a trade name for the combo, or the number of pills for each, etc. I find this stuff interesting.

More Cowbell said...

I'm all for a woman's right to chose. But if you can't figure out you're pregnant and don't want the baby after the first trimester, please just have the baby and gift it to someone who wants it.
I've known so many couples who have wanted to adopt!

not a libtard said...

I'm that you'd describe nowadays as a conservative, and pro choice (and gay rights, adoption, etc).
But this is giving me nausea.

I agree with the commenters who can see this for what it is: killing off girl feti.
Because nowadays, if you don't wish to get pregnant, YOU'RE NOT GONNA GET FUCKING PREGNANT!

And even if you do, there is no excuse to wait until the second trimester.

People who think this is all coolio, are sick as fuck and/or have never been pregnant and don't have any children.

Samantha the 1st said...

Eponymous: end of 2nd is beginning of 3rd. Same/same.

It's viable now in the 2nd anyway.

Why quibble; the points remain.

Late term abortions = murder.

The Eskimo allegedly have many words for snow. They have a real appreciation for the various physical Forms of presentation, accidents of personality, for what is Essentially snow. Word.

Germany's allegedly about as skittish as it gets for the manufacture and manipulation by Force of NonPersons. Yet rules for "scientific sacrifice" of Frogs are different pre- and post-Metamorphosis as if tadpoles weren't Equals as far as Amphibian-hood goes.

Is/Isn't -- Did / Didn't ...
Living / Dead -- Died / Was Killed ...

These are stark sometimes shocking realities ... as opposed to the "it's Complicated" IsIs, cast in 50 Shades of Grey area Personal Truth which does not permit of Scientifically Proven fact or unassailable rational logic.

"Fetus", of all words, scientifically speaking, means "having unmistakably Human characteristics".

You'd think an Educated populace could use words like that properly ... at least where the family of man's concerned. Maybe trusting or Education to those most interested in using the Techniques they perfected on livestock to become the critical Rights of a thing they've always termed Population Control is making monkeys ... or worse ... out of all of us.

You pay now or you pay later but you always pay. Pay for the abortion or pay to raise it but pay you will - as individuals and as a society.

Count Jerkula said...

The more abortions in those 3rd world dumps, the better.

Planned Parenthood is not going to like a pill that is infringing on their bread and butter.
