About RITROD INJECTION 5ML
RITROD INJECTION 5ML belongs to a class of medications called ‘tocolytic agents’ used to prevent premature labor. Premature labour happens when consistent contractions result in the opening of the cervix after week 20 but before week 37 of pregnancy. Preterm labour can result in premature delivery. Symptoms include leaking fluid or bleeding from the vagina, pressure in the pelvis, and cramps that feel like menstrual cramps regularly.
RITROD INJECTION 5ML contains ‘Ritodrine’, which belongs to a class of medications called ‘uterine relaxants’. It is a tocolytic agent which prevents preterm labor by suppressing uterine contractions. It works by improving blood flow to the smooth muscles of the uterus. This effect helps to decrease the intensity and frequency of uterine contractions, thereby delaying labor.
RITROD INJECTION 5ML will be administered by a qualified healthcare professional. The common side effects are injection site reactions, headache, blurred vision, chest pain or tightness, dizziness or light-headedness, dry mouth, increased urination, loss of appetite, feeling sick, being sick, sleepiness or drowsiness, stomach-ache or abdominal pain, tiredness and unusual thirst. These side effects usually go away without requiring any treatment. However, if these side effects persist or worsen, inform your doctor immediately.
Before taking the RITROD INJECTION 5ML, let your doctor know about all your sensitivities and all medications you are using. The presence of additional medical issues may impact the use of this medication, so inform your doctor if you have any other medical issues, including diabetes, high blood pressure (hypertension), migraine, heart or blood vessel disease, or thyroid issues. It is recommended not to take alcohol while RITROD INJECTION 5ML therapy.
