Sublingual misoprostol

2022-09-06 11:02:46
Respected Doctor's I had medication abortion following missed abortion at 8+2 weeks with crl 6+3 weeks. Had sublingual misoprostol 800 mcg as advised by my gynaecologist. Started bleeding with minimal cramps after 2 hrs. Changed 2 pads since then with clots. But the issue is that the tablet residue is still present under the tongue and i am not taking anything from mouth except sips of water,since 10 am. Should I need to drink the residue with water as it's already 6 hrs or still keep it beneath the tongue. And how much time will it take to completely dissolve. Thanku doctor's.

You can swallow it. Effects of tablet had already started. Moreover the action component of drug is absorbed immediately in sublingual tablets. Take proper food & water.
Next Steps
Watch for any heavy bleeding if any.
Health Tips
Drink plenty of water and fluids. Eat healthy full mixed diet.
