Abstract
Stepwise oral misoprostol (50 μg followed by 100 μg) appears to be as effective as vaginal misoprostol (25 μg) for cervical ripening with a low incidence of hyperstimulation, no increase in side effects, a high rate of patient satisfaction, and is associated with a lower cesarean section rate.
