|
Cytotec is a drug associated with labor inducement. It has an abortifacient property that makes it a preferable drug for pregnant women. Since it has the ability to induce labor, it is most often used to induce labor for abortion. However, physicians are also using it to induce labor in pregnant women.
Why cytotec is useful for pregnant women only?
Cytotec is primarily used by physicians and doctors to ripen the cervix of a pregnant woman. This medication contains a special medical formula taken in pill form. Since dosage of this medication is specific, its dosage has to be taken strictly according to prescription. Cytotec is an oral medicine which needs to be taken with lots of precaution. What is amazing about cytotec is that if oral intake is not possible, it can also be inserted in the vagina of the woman after breaking down into pieces.
Cytotec and NSAID
Although it is prescribed to pregnant women, Cytotec cannot be used until the patient while taking nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug therapy, known as NSAID. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug therapy is a prescribed medication for arthritis, pain, and respiratory disorders. Cystotec should not be used while taking any NSAID therapy. Usage of NSAIDs puts a pregnant woman at higher risk of developing gastric ulcers.
Precautions
There has been significant research work regarding the usage of this drug and its side effects. In November 1999 American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists issued an oppinion warning of significantly larger chances of uterine damage if a heavy dosage of Cytotec is taken.
Cytotec is known by the generic as Misoprostol, and is also used for decreasing blood pressure after a pregnant woman has delivered a baby. If you are a pregnant woman and considering this medication for controlling blood pressure, it is recommended for you to consult a doctor before starting dosage.
