The correct dosage of misoprostol (25 mcg) for medical abortion typically involves taking several doses of 200 mcg tablets vaginally or orally, but regimens vary based on protocol and gestational age.
🩺 Dosage Guidelines
- Commonly, 800 mcg (four 200 mcg tablets) of misoprostol is taken vaginally or orally as a single dose.
- This dose may be repeated after 3–4 hours if the abortion has not completed.
- Some protocols use 600–800 mcg doses every 3 hours, up to 3 doses if needed within 24 hours.
⚠️ Important Safety Notes
- Misoprostol is used under medical supervision to ensure safe and complete abortion.
- Unsupervised use may lead to incomplete abortion, heavy bleeding, or infection requiring urgent care.
- If heavy bleeding, fever, or severe pain occurs, immediate doctor consultation is essential.
🩺 Next Steps
