Misoprostol is a prostaglandin analog that is used to treat ulcers caused by NSAIDs, to manage miscarriages, to avoid postpartum hemorrhage, and to perform first-trimester abortions. Prostaglandin receptor activation in the stomach lowers gastric acid output, but stimulation in the uterine and cervix can enhance the strength and frequency of contractions while decreasing cervical tone.

This medicine is intended to prevent stomach ulcers when you are using nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) (such as aspirin, ibuprofen, or naproxen), especially if you are at risk of developing ulcers or have a history of ulcers. Misoprostol can help you avoid significant ulcer complications such as hemorrhage. By reducing the quantity of acid that comes into touch with your stomach lining, this medicine preserves it. Additionally, this medicine is used in conjunction with another medication (mifepristone) to terminate a pregnancy (abortion).
