Atosiban and nifedipin for the treatment of preterm labor

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology and Obstetrics, 2005
AbstractObjectiveTo perform a comparison between atosiban (oxytocin antagonist) and nifedipin (calcium channel blocker) for acute treatment of preterm labor and their maternal safety. Methods: A randomized controlled trial study was performed on 80 pregnant women with preterm labor, between 26 and 34 weeks of pregnancy, in Akbar Abadi Teaching Hospital

A novel HPLC method for analysis of atosiban and its five related substances in atosiban acetate injection

Journal of Pharmaceutical and Biomedical Analysis, 2020
Consulting the national pharmacopoeia, no official quality standard was found for estimation of related substances and assay of atosiban acetate injection, of which main active component is atosiban. To solve this problem, herein, a novel high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method was developed and validated in this study.

Atosiban for Preterm Labour

Drugs, 2004
Oxytocin antagonists are synthetic analogues that have the nonapeptide structure of oxytocin. They act by competing with oxytocin for receptors in the myometrium. Animal experiments and pilot clinical studies have examined several agents and, of these, atosiban has been the object of extensive clinical trials.

Atosiban

Clinical Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1995
The role of oxytocin and oxytocin receptors in preterm labor is perhaps more prominent than once thought. The blockade of oxytocin and/or oxytocin receptors has both a theoretical and clinical aspect. Initial trials with the oxytocin antagonist atosiban have been encouraging with respect to efficacy and side effect profile. Current trials are examining

Placental passage of the oxytocin antagonist atosiban

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1995
We wanted to determine the degree of placental transfer of atosiban (Antocin), an oxytocin antagonist, in pregnant women at term. We also assessed the effects of the infusion on umbilical cord blood gases at birth and the maternal hematocrit drop after cesarean section.Eight women undergoing elective cesarean section at term were studied. Each received

Molecular Modeling of the Neurohypophyseal Receptor/Atosiban Complexes

Protein & Peptide Letters, 2003
The neurohypophyseal nonapeptide hormone oxytocin (OT) is the strongest uterotonic substance known and is responsible for the initiation of labor. Conversely, oxytocin antagonists blocking uterine OT receptor can suppress uterus contraction. In this paper we describe a computer simulated docking pertinent to affinity of an oxytocin antagonist atosiban ...

Atosiban and managing women in preterm labour

The Lancet
Lancet . 2025;405:955-957. doi: 10.1016/S0140-6736(25)00402-7. Preterm labor (PTL) is a significant cause of preterm birth (PTB) worldwide, which can cause substantial health challenges for neonates. Tocolysis can be used in some cases of PTL to delay birth. Recently, the use

Visual compatibility of atosiban acetate with four drugs

American Journal of Health-System Pharmacy, 2005
Preterm delivery (before 37 completed weeks of gestation) is the major determinant of infant mortality.[1][1] Approved for use in European countries, atosiban is a new tocolytic indicated for the delay of imminent preterm birth in pregnant women with regular uterine contractions at a gestational ...
