The possibility that infection can cause premature labor is appealing. If true, antibiotics treat the cause, in contrast to tocolytic agents, which treat symptoms. There is strong evidence that infection is a factor in premature labor. Historical data from the preantibiotic era in patients with pyelonephritis and pneumonia support this.

Inhibition of Premature Labor by Terbutaline
Obstetrics & Gynecology, 1978Terbutaline was administered to 50 women, all diagnosed as being in labor prior to 36 weeks' gestation. In 47, uterine activity was initially arrested with intravenous therapy. The infusion rate required to arrest uterine activity ranged from 10 to 80 microgram/min and 21 of the 50 patients (42%) required more than one intravenous infusion. The average

Premature labor and meperidine analgesia
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1967Abstract Published scientific laboratory and clinical data indicate that analgesia during premature labor is detrimental to the newborn. An anterospective study of 1,002 premature labors in which meperidine, scopolamine, and a placebo were given is analyzed.
