Mifepristone is a cortisol receptor blocker for oral administration. The chemical name of mifepristone is 11β-(4-dimethylaminophenyl)-17β-hydroxy-17α-(1-propynyl)-estra-4, 9-dien-3-one. The molecular formula is C 29 H 35 NO 2 ; the molecular weight is 429.60, and the structural formula is: Mifepristone demonstrates a pH-related solubility profile. The greatest solubility is achieved in acidic media (~ 25 mg/mL at pH 1.5) and solubility declines rapidly as the pH is increased. At pH values above 2.5 the solubility of mifepristone is less than 1 mg/mL. Each mifepristone tablet for oral use contains 300 mg of mifepristone. The inactive ingredients of mifepristone tablets are FD&C Blue #1 Brilliant Blue FCF Aluminum Lake, FD&C Yellow #5 (tartrazine) Aluminum Lake, FD&C Yellow #6 Sunset Yellow FCF Aluminum Lake, hydroxypropyl cellulose, hypromellose, magnesium stearate, polysorbate 80, microcrystalline cellulose, sodium lauryl sulfate, sodium starch glycolate type A, titanium dioxide, and triacetin. 1

Mifepristone tablets each contain 200 mg of mifepristone, a synthetic steroid with antiprogestational effects. The tablets are light yellow in color, circular, bi-convex, and are intended for oral administration only. The tablets include the inactive ingredients colloidal silicon dioxide, corn starch, povidone, microcrystalline cellulose, and magnesium stearate. Mifepristone is a substituted 19-nor steroid compound chemically designated as 11ß-[ p - (Dimethylamino) phenyl]-17ß-hydroxy- 17-(1-propynyl) estra-4,9-dien-3-one. Its empirical formula is C 29 H 35 NO 2 . Its structural formula is: The compound is a yellow powder with a molecular weight of 429.6 and a melting point of 192- 196°C. It is freely soluble in methanol, chloroform and acetone and poorly soluble in water, hexane and isopropyl ether. mifepristone-str
