Medical abortion causes moderate to very strong cramping throughout and after the process. Each woman is different. Cramping is usually strong for about 4-8 hours after misoprostol. Milder cramps may continue for several days till up to 2 weeks.
Nausea and vomiting are frequent pregnancy-related symptoms but they may become worse with the use of misoprostol. Low grade fever below 38ยบ, chills, nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, headache and flu-like symptoms are all side effects of Misoprostol (the second abortion pill). They usually occur within the hour following administration and last for 1 to 2 hours and should resolve within 6 hours of using the misoprostol.
If a woman feels ill, has intense abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and/or diarrhoea, or has a fever lasting more than 24 hours after using Misoprostol she should see a doctor.
