PROSTODIN 125MG AMPULE 1ML

PROSTODIN 125MG AMPULE 1ML belongs to the class of medication called 'oxytocic' or 'uterotonic', primarily used for the initiation or improvement of uterine contraction (antepartum) and producing uterine contraction during the third stage of labour (postpartum). Besides this, it also controls postpartum bleeding or haemorrhage after childbirth. PROSTODIN 125MG AMPULE 1ML is also used for the medical termination of the pregnancy between the 13th to 20th week of pregnancy (second trimester of the pregnancy) after the first day of the last menses period.

PROSTODIN 125MG AMPULE 1ML contains a synthetic prostaglandin (a chemical messenger) analogue ‘Carboprost’ with oxytocic properties. PROSTODIN 125MG AMPULE 1ML stimulates uterine muscles and increases uterus contractions. It also increases the production of a natural substance called prostaglandins (PGs), increasing contractions and controlling postpartum bleeding. In addition, it is also used to produce an abortion by causing uterine contractions.

PROSTODIN 125MG AMPULE 1ML administered by a doctor only in hospitals in which intensive care and surgical facilities are available. The most common side effects of PROSTODIN 125MG AMPULE 1ML are nausea, vomiting, and headache in some cases. Most of these side effects of PROSTODIN 125MG AMPULE 1ML do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

You should not receive PROSTODIN 125MG AMPULE 1ML if you are allergic to it, have active pelvic inflammatory disease, have a lung disorder or breathing problem, or have heart disease, kidney disease or liver disease. PROSTODIN 125MG AMPULE 1ML is not recommended to children below 18 years of age as safety and effectiveness have not been established. Do not do strenuous activities like running, heavy exercise or driving to avoid excessive bleeding. The doctor will also check with ultrasound if the absorption is complete, as no bleeding does not mean that abortion is complete. Although the incidence of cervical trauma is extremely small, the cervix (lower portion of the uterus) should always be carefully examined immediately post-abortion with PROSTODIN 125MG AMPULE 1ML. PROSTODIN 125MG AMPULE 1ML is a cold chain medicine, and so it has to be stored in the refrigerator between 2-8 degrees celsius else its efficacy might get lost. Do not store in the freezer or the fridge.

PROSTODIN 125MG AMPULE 1ML contains ‘Carboprost’, a synthetic prostaglandin (a chemical messenger) analogue of PGF2α with oxytocic properties. It is used to treat severe bleeding after childbirth (postpartum). In addition to this, is also used to produce an abortion by causing uterine contractions. It is usually given between the 13th and 20th weeks (2nd trimester) of pregnancy. PROSTODIN 125MG AMPULE 1ML stimulates uterine muscles and increases the contractions in the uterus. Also, it increases the production of prostaglandins, which further increases the contractions and hence control post-delivery bleeding. PROSTODIN 125MG AMPULE 1ML is often used when another method of abortion has not completely emptied the uterus or when a pregnancy complication would cause the baby to be born too early to survive. PROSTODIN 125MG AMPULE 1ML is more effective in preventing postpartum bleeding in high-risk patients undergoing cesarean delivery than oxytocin.

• Nausea
• Vomiting
• Diarrhea
• Flushing (warmth, redness, or tingly feeling)
• Cough
• Headache
• Mild pelvic pain or menstrual-type cramps
• Endometriosis (tissue that lines the uterus grows somewhere else, such as the ovaries)

Do not take PROSTODIN 125MG AMPULE 1ML if you are allergic to PROSTODIN 125MG AMPULE 1ML or its ingredients. Increasing the dose of PROSTODIN 125MG AMPULE 1ML can be harmful if your womb already has too strong contractions, any obstructions in the pathway that might prevent the delivery or if the baby is not receiving a sufficient oxygen supply. If you have been given prostaglandins, do not use PROSTODIN 125MG AMPULE 1ML within 6 hours. If taken together, can increase the contractions. PROSTODIN 125MG AMPULE 1ML should not be used for a prolonged time if the contractions do not increase or if you have severe pre-eclamptic toxaemia (high blood pressure, protein in the urine, and swelling) of blood or heart circulation problem. A professional should always administer PROSTODIN 125MG AMPULE 1ML at a hospital, do not practice self-administration. It should also not be given as a rapid injection into a vein as it might cause hypotension (low blood pressure) or suddenly increased heart rate.  Regular follow-up with the doctor is required for constant monitoring of abortion. If medical termination does not happen or becomes unsuccessful, it should be terminated surgically as it can lead to foetal defects. Your doctor will examine by ultrasonography to confirm if the abortion is complete. Confirmation of fetal death is imperative before administration when used for missed abortion or intrauterine fetal death. You should not receive PROSTODIN 125MG AMPULE 1ML if you have an active pelvic inflammatory disease, a breathing disorder, heart disease, liver or kidney disease.

• For some food like dates, raspberry tea leaves are known to ripen the cervix and get labour started.
• Acupressure also stimulates labour and helps in delivery.
• Keep your weight under control with a body mass index (BMI) of 19.5-24.9.
• Opt for a diet rich in whole grains, fruits, veggies and low-fat dairy products.
