I have spoken to doulas, childbirth educators and mothers across the USA.  And time and time again, we are reminded of the devestating effects of Cytotec.  And time and time again physicians still use this drug on women.  Yes, the possible side effects are serious in nature and I am disgusted that such a drug can be used on women, especially when two lives are at risk.  Even more disgusting then the risks involed with this drug is the fact that doctor's do not inform women of the dangers of this drug.  I think it is sad that doctor's are already ethically required to inform women of the risks of procedure, interventions, drugs, etc, but that it will take a panel such as this to enforce it.   Please send a message tp physicians that women are not lab rats and should not be treated as such!

Thank You,

Sincerely,
