STUDIES ON 15(S)15 METHYL PGF BY INTRAMUSCULAR ROUTE FOR SECOND TRIMESTER ABORTION (THREE HOURLY SCHEDULE).

A multicentre study was undertaken to study the intramuscular 15(S)-5 methyl PGF (Prostin 15M, Upjohn) for induction of second trimester abortion. The patients were premedicated with Imodium and Perinorm for control of gastrointestinal side effects. Prostin 15M was given 250 µg every three hours and the progress was assessed before each injection.
