Carbetocin is a synthetic analogue of human peptide hormone, oxytocin. Like oxytocin, it stimulate oxytocin receptors and is used to facilitate childbirth. The drug is being marketed in Europe under the name Pabal for the prevention of uterine atony following delivery of the infant by Caesarean section. If untreated by carbetocin, uterine atony may lead to postpartum haemorrhage.

Sample Use Guides
100 ug of carbetocin must be administered slowly, over 1 minute only after delivery of the infant by Caesarean section.
Route of Administration:
Intravenous
Myometrial strips from women undergoing elective cesarean deliveries were bathed in physiological salt solution or oxytocin (10(-5) M) for 2 hours and then subjected to a dose-response testing with increasing concentrations of carbetocin in a pattern of 1 log molar increase every 10 min from 10 (-10) to 10 (-5) M.
