Quote from the sited link:

“Fetal Demise

This is initiated by injection of the combination of Digoxin and Potassium Chloride (most commonly) into the fetal heart to assure the following:

No additional pain or discomfort to the fetus

Generally assures no chance of a live birth

The fetal tissue becomes softer which makes it easier for the tissue to pass safely through the mother’s cervix

Many studies show a fetus that succumbs in the uterus delivers faster”


Isn’t Potassium Chloride also used in executions on death row?

The combo of digoxin and potassium chloride sounds like a horrid way to die.
