Stability of oral oxytocics in tropical climates: Stability of oral oxytocics in tropical climates: results of simulation studies on oral ergometrine, oral methylergometrine, buccal oxytocin and buccal desamino-oxytocin

ABSTRACT

It reports on an assessment of stability patterns of common oral oxytocics to evaluate their usefulness in reducing postpartum haemorrhage in tropical areas. Simulation studies assessed the influence of packaging, humidity, light and heat on tablets of ergometrine, methylergometrine, buccal oxytocin and buccal desamino-oxytocin.
