There is persisting controversy about tocolytic treatment for preterm labour. This review addresses this controversy by appraising the recent clinical literature.Surveys of obstetricians indicate a high usage of tocolysis for preterm labour, but evidence that this treatment confers overall benefit is still lacking.

Zentralblatt fur Gynakologie, 1987The authors report on the results of treatment of threatening premature labour with clenbuterol. The daily dose was 40 micrograms twice and later 20 micrograms twice with good efficiency.

The controversy surrounding indomethacin for tocolysis
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2001Indomethacin is a prostaglandin synthetase inhibitor sometimes used for tocolysis. Several placebo-controlled trials and trials comparing indomethacin to other potential first-line tocolytic agents support its efficacy for delaying delivery for >48 hours.

Effectiveness of tocolytic strategies are difficult to prove and should called in question. Tocolysis by betaadrenergic agents inhibit a symptom without eliminating causing pathologies. Initial steps in etiology as well as therapy should be based on the entire organism including the psyche with a special focus on uterus, cervix and feto-placental unit.

External cephalic version without tocolysis
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1988The increased rate of cesarean section in the United States is in part the result of more liberal use of the operation because of breech presentation. In an attempt to reduce the incidence of breech presentation in labor in a group of private patients, 66 patients underwent 90 attempted external cephalic versions in my office without tocolysis.

Risks and Complications of Tocolysis
Clinical Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1995In this article, the author has reviewed available information on maternal, fetal, and neonatal risks and complications of tocolytic therapy. Because no ideal tocolytic agent exists, clinicians must be aware of the potential problems that can be encountered from initiating tocolysis.

Revue medicale de Liege, 2007
Preterm birth is the most common underlying cause of perinatal morbidity and mortality in nonanomalous infants. Treatment of preterm labor with tocolytic medication is an important part of improving perinatal outcome. Choosing a tocolytic agent requires consideration of efficacy and safety. It is the aims of the present research.

The results of tocolysis applied for delaying premature delivery and abortion is reported as well as its side effects in the mother. 168 patients were included in the study. It is stated that fenoterol can be successfully administered for stopping early contractions. The side effects of the drug are relatively mild and avoidable. It is also stated that

[Tocolysis: which are the benefits?].
Minerva ginecologica, 2006Spontaneous preterm labor is still a major problem in perinatal medicine and it is associated to overwhelming risks of neonatal morbidity and mortality. Delaying delivery for hours, days or sometimes weeks may greatly reduce the short- and long-term perinatal morbidity improving fetal maturity of several organs and systems.

[Risks of prolonged tocolysis].
Revue francaise de gynecologie et d'obstetrique, 1995Premature delivery menace is still a major issue in obstetrics. It concerns 4 to 5% of the pregnancies. Being responsible of an important fetal morbidity, it implies the use of a rapid and efficient treatment. This treatment uses progestins, prostaglandins inhibitors and beta-mimetics. The more efficient these medicines are, the more dangerous is their
