Abstract Advance distribution of misoprostol is an evidence‐based strategy for preventing postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) at births without skilled health personnel present. Despite its lifesaving potential, initial momentum behind this intervention has slowed over the last decade and has not been renewed since WHO released updated guidelines in 2020 or ...
