Oral misoprostol 400 μg was as effective as vaginal misoprostol 200 μg for second trimester abortion.

A typical dose is on the order of 1 mg (1000 micrograms) or less; no pharmacy (and indeed, no warehouse) is ever going to have 800 g in stock at once. An 800-gram dose will not have been administered to any patient, no matter how many sites perpetuate this error.
