Hi
Misoprostol is a prostaglandin analogue. Prostaglandins are hormone like chemicals which are responsible for cramping like sensation. Cramping usually starts one to four hours after taking the drug and may subside in a couple of days. Incase of excess bleeding with cramps or clots,you need to visit your gynaecologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
