Brief Answer: Vaginal use Detailed Answer: 1. Empty your bladder. 2. Wash your hands. 3. Push the four misoprostol tablets one at a time up into the vagina as far as you can using your finger. In most patients this dose is enough.If tablets come out reinsert then.Wait for three four hours.Generally after that bleeding will start.Additional dose is only needed if bleeding fails to start or is scanty. Hope this answers your question.Please ask if there are doubts.
