Oxytocin works perfectly well, and doesn't have any chance of dissolving in the liquor and running out of the vagina. Besides that it is much cheaper than Cervidil or Prepidil, and can be stopped immediately if hyperstimulation should occur. Can't really see any point in considering putting any of the prostaglandins in the vagina where there is liquor leaking. stray Efrain Ramirez wrote: > I do not use Cervidil nor Prepidil (not availabel and too expensive)- > Cytotec is a very good drug - I also use Prostin Gel (2 mgs compound) > intracervical - in a multip - oxytocin also works -- use your clinical > judgment> > > At Mon, 11 Mar 2002, C.Moi,M.D wrote: > > > >I was wondering how you feel about using Cervidil,Prepidil, or Cytotec > >for ripening when BOW is ruptured? what problems do you see(if any) as a > >result of that? > -- Dr.S.H.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
