Manufactured to the highest quality standards, this injection offers essential support in obstetric emergencies to prevent excessive bleeding and ensure maternal safety.

Indications and Usage: Carboprost Tromethamine Injection is indicated for the prevention and treatment of postpartum hemorrhage due to uterine atony following childbirth. It is used to induce strong and coordinated uterine contractions to facilitate hemostasis and reduce blood loss in the immediate postpartum period.

The recommended dose is 250 mcg, with repeat doses administered at intervals if necessary, up to a maximum of eight doses per day.

Additionally, it is contraindicated in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) or cardiovascular disease.

Patients should be advised to report any unusual symptoms promptly.

Drug Interactions: Concomitant use of Carboprost Tromethamine Injection with other uterotonic agents or drugs that affect uterine contractility may potentiate the effects of carboprost tromethamine or alter its pharmacokinetics. Healthcare providers should review the patient's medication profile carefully to avoid potential drug interactions.
