Misoprostol

Uses

Misoprostol is used for medical abortion and to manage post-delivery bleeding.

How it Works

How Misoprostol Works Misoprostol increases contractions of the uterus to induce abortion. It can also help prevent post-delivery bleeding caused by inadequate uterine contractions.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Misoprostol include dyspepsia, diarrhea, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, flatulence, constipation, and uterine bleeding.

Expert Advice

  • It may also be utilized to prevent excessive bleeding following delivery.
  • For pregnancy termination:
    • Take it no later than 63 days after the first day of your last menstrual period.
    • Administer it 36 – 48 hours after taking mifepristone.
    • Rest for at least 3 hours after taking the medication.
    • If you vomit within 30 minutes of taking the tablet, consult your doctor immediately, as you may need to take another tablet.
    • Take it only as prescribed by your doctor.
  • Incomplete miscarriages may lead to serious medical complications, potentially resulting in hospitalization, surgery, and possible infertility.
  • Vaginal bleeding lasting approximately 12 days may occur after taking this medication.
  • Inform your doctor immediately if excessive bleeding occurs or if you experience severe abdominal pain.
  • Exercise caution while driving or engaging in activities that require concentration, as this medication can cause dizziness and sleepiness.
