Brief Answer:
Take two more doses.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
Your first dose of misoprostal has come out. So it is best to take 2 tablets of misoprostal orally at night for two days to have a proper effect. It is also vital to have a follow up ultrasound scan to check that the abortion pills worked and the uterus is empty, after 15 days of taking the tablets.
Failing to take these precautions , there are risks such as - infection, uncontrolled bleeding, retained products, undiagnosed ectopic pregnancy etc.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
