Hi,

The bleeding starts after misoprostol, either immediately after the first dose of misoprostol or after 2-3 doses, every patient reacts differently to these drugs and miscarriage can be quick and complete in some and prolonged and incomplete, when medical help of a gynecologist to do D and C may be required.
Misoprostol is taken 48 hours after the mifepristone to have optimal effect.
Guidance of a gynecologist will be required regarding exact dosage and repetition of the dose.

Hope this helps.
Regards.
