They were evaluated the mean time from induction to termination, maternal side effects, and total dose of the powdered 100ug misoprostol adminstered in the posterior vaginal fornix every six hours.RESULTS:
The mean time from induction to termination was 21.1+/-8.2 hours after administration of the intravaginal misoprostol. Only two patients had not been delivered within 48hours. Vomiting, diarrhea, and fever were not accompanied except nausea. The total dosage of misoprostol was 412.5+/-156.1ug.CONCLUSION:
