Abdominal tightness and cramping in the lower abdomen are common side effects after taking misoprostol, as the medication causes uterine contractions. Not passing motion for 24 hours can also be a temporary side effect. However, if the tightness is severe, accompanied by heavy bleeding, fever, or worsening pain, it is important to consult your doctor promptly to ensure everything is progressing safely.
