Brief Answer:
you have taken dosage wrongly

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query to hcm,
You have unfortunately taken the misoprostol dosage wrongly. The misoprostol dosage all 4 tabs should have been taken together after 36 hrs of the first pill. Now if the bleeding doesn't start in next 12 hrs, then you may please take 4 tabs of 200mcg misoprostol- 800mcg stat after 12 hrs and wait for the bleeding to start in next 6-8 hrs.
Regards

all at once ?

Detailed Answer:
Yes, you should take all 4 tablets of misoprostol together and if still the bleeding doesn't start in next 4-6 hrs then you should take 2 tabs=400mcg. If still the bleeding doesn't occur then you have to wait for 48 hrs and then get an ultrasound guided dilatation and curettage.
