Brief Answer:
Wait for 24 hours

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand the concerns.
You should wait for 24 hours after taking the second dose of misoprostol.
If the bleeding do not starts with passage of clots in this time, then there is failure of medical method and you need to go for surgical evacuation for abortion.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
