Detailed Answer:
Hi there,
Welcome to HCM,
If after 2 pills of misoprost bleeding has started then no need to worry. The process has started and will be complete soon.
The bleeding will be like a heavy period.
The pain should subside by itself in a couple of hours. No medicine is required.
If bleeding or pain is in excess such that she feels giddy or very weak then see the doctor.
Also see the doctor after 1 weeks to access if the process is complete.
Hope this helps.
Regards.

Brief Answer:
Hi
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
This is common that after the misoprostol the bleeding is very heavy for 2 days.
But if she is feeling very giddy or if having to use more than 6-7 sanitary napkins per day she needs to be checked by a gynecologist.
If not her bleeding will subside itself.
She can take Mefenemic acid 500mg (Ponstan) for pain.
Its not advisable to take any other medications to decrease the bleeding.
Do not take any more misoprostol as bleeding is already heavy.
Hope this helps.
Regards.
