"all trial and error, on unsuspecting women" . . .

I don't know where you got this information from but there are hundreds of studies (peer-reviewed, IRB approved) on cytotec as an induction agent (look at PubMed not google).

The reason for the FDA warning is because it was pressured by anti-choice groups -- not based on medical science. For this reason it will never be labeled for obstetrical uses.

Cytotec is cheap and stable at room temperature (doesn't need to be refrigerated) and can be delivered without an IV all making it an ideal medicine to use in third world circumstances where it can help in managing post-partum hemorrhage which is the leading cause of maternal mortality world wide.
