My doctor wants me to take cytotec one dose the night before my D&C and one dose the morning of. I have an hour and a half drive to where she is located so I told her I was nervous about the cytotec inducing things and the miscarriage process happening on the drive there and she said it was possible but she would only prescribe 100 mcg doses to lessen that chance.
Does that still seem like enough to start the process? I don't know how much it takes (I know it's different for everyone). Im also scared of it making me nauseaus the morning of if I can't eat with it :/ Did anyone else have any issues with that? Thank you!
I believe the does at home is 400mg to induce so 100 seems like a low dose. You can place it vaginally or at least i was told you could. Maybe you could call her and ask if you can do it that way to avoid possible nausea.
It didn't make me nauseous at all. It made me get the shakes a little and a mild fever but I was being induced with it in hospital and I think the dose was 700mg. It took me from 7am-3:30pm to deliver and I had been given 3 doses during that time.
You could always take it and go in early if you're feeling strong regular cramps.
Yes I took it on an empty stomach because I was being induced in hospital. And the dose was much higher.... I'm sure you have all kinds of stress and nerves right now, you'll be ok, I'm sure they'll take good care of you. Sending lots of thoughts your way today.
