Answer

I'm not sure what that drug is, but if you are pregnant and have bleeding, you need to see a doctor right away.

Answer

From webmd.com:

Do not take misoprostol (Cytotec) for the prevention of stomach ulcers if you are pregnant or if you might become pregnant during treatment. If you do become pregnant during treatment with misoprostol (Cytotec), stop taking the medication and contact your doctor immediately. Misoprostol (Cytotec) is in the FDA pregnancy category X. This means that misoprostol (Cytotec) is known to be harmful to an unborn baby. Misoprostol (Cytotec) can cause miscarriage or spontaneous abortion (sometimes incomplete which could lead to dangerous bleeding and require hospitalization and surgery), premature birth, or birth defects. Misoprostol (Cytotec) has also been reported to cause uterine rupture (tearing) when given after the eighth week of pregnancy, which can result in severe bleeding, hysterectomy, and/or maternal or fetal death. A pregnancy test with negative results will be required within 2 weeks of starting treatment with misoprostol (Cytotec), and treatment will begin only on the second or third day of a regular menstrual cycle. Also, appropriate contraception will be needed to prevent pregnancy during treatment and for one menstrual cycle following treatment. In some cases, misoprostol (Cytotec) may be used under the supervision of a doctor for the induction of labor and delivery or abortion.

Answer

Cytotec is being used rectally and orally to induce labor more and more frequently. If you suspect or know that you are pregnant you should report any bleeding to your doctor. It is possible that bleeding, especially with clots, is a sign of miscarriage.
