In Vitro Comparative Effect of Carbetocin and Oxytocin in Pregnant Human Myometrium with and without Oxytocin Pretreatment

Abstract

In vitro contractions produced by oxytocin are superior to carbetocin in human myometrium with or without oxytocin pretreatment. Oxytocin pretreatment results in attenuation of contractions induced by both oxytocin and carbetocin.
