Misoprostol（Cat No.:I004214）is a synthetic prostaglandin E1 analog used in medicine for various purposes. It is commonly prescribed to prevent stomach ulcers caused by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and to induce labor or manage miscarriages. Misoprostol works by stimulating uterine contractions and softening the cervix, which is why it is used in obstetrics for medical abortion and labor induction. It is also utilized to treat postpartum hemorrhage by promoting uterine contraction to reduce excessive bleeding. Side effects may include gastrointestinal disturbances, such as diarrhea, nausea, or abdominal cramps.
