How fast does Cytotec work?

It is recommended to take Cytotec 24-48 hours after taking mifepristone. It increases uterine contractions and causes the excretion of pregnant tissue in 4-6 hours.

The abortion process is completed within 3-4 days. It is recommended to follow up with your doctor after 2 weeks.

Will Misoprostol Affect Future Pregnancy?
