Used For

Labour Inducer

How it works

Dinoprostone is a prostaglandin of the E series with actions on smooth muscle; the endogenous substance is termed prostaglandin E2. It induces contraction of uterine muscle at any stage of pregnancy and is reported to act predominantly as a vasodilator on blood vessels and as a bronchodilator on bronchial muscle. It is postulated that vaginal absorption of PGE2 stimulates endogenous PGE2 and PGF2a production, similar to that which is seen in spontaneous labour.

Prostin E-2 Warnings

Warning 1

As with any oxytocic agent, the risk of uterine rupture should be considered. Concomitant medication, maternal and foetal status should be taken into consideration in order to minimise the risk of uterine hyperstimulation, uterine rupture, uterine haemorrhage, foetal and neonatal death.

Warning 2

In labour induction, cephalopelvic relationships should be carefully evaluated before use of Vaginal Tablets. During use, uterine activity, foetal status and the progression of cervical dilation should be carefully monitored to detect possible evidence of undesired responses, e.g. hypertonus, sustained uterine contractions, or foetal distress.

Warning 3

In cases where there is a known history of hypertonic uterine contractility or tetanic uterine contractions, it is recommended that uterine activity and the state of the foetus (where applicable) should be continuously monitored throughout labour. The possibility of uterine rupture should be borne in mind where high-tone uterine contractions are sustained.
