Does Misoprostol Cause Vomiting And Abdominal Cramps?

I took misoprostol as my doctor told me to (2 pills in each cheek for 30 minutes then swallow) and then vomited about 25-30 minutes later. Have had cramping and bleeding but not as severe as expected by 3 1/2 hours, also haven t passed many blood clots. Is this normal at all?
