What is Oral Misoprostol For Induction of Labour about?
The WHO recommends using low-dose oral misoprostol (20-25ug) every 2 hours for labor induction, as it is effective and safer than vaginal dinoprostone. The protocol includes preparing a misoprostol solution for accurate dosing and monitoring fetal heart rate after each dose. Contraindications include previous cesarean sections and a high risk of uterine hyperstimulation, with a transition to oxytocin advised after a 4-hour wait post-misoprostol administration.
