Severe: Contraindicated.
Chống chỉ định
Labour induction, 1st or 2nd stage of labour prior to the delivery of anterior shoulder, primary or secondary uterine inertia, severe cardiac disease, severe hypertension, pre-eclampsia, eclampsia, occlusive vascular disease, sepsis. Severe renal and hepatic impairment. Pregnancy.
Thận trọng
Women with mild to moderate hypertension, CV disease (e.g. coronary artery disease), long QT syndrome, Raynaud’s phenomenon. Mild to moderate renal and hepatic impairment. In cases of breech and other abnormal presentations, this medicine should not be given until after delivery of the child or in multiple births until the last child has been delivered.
Symptoms: Ergometrine: Nausea, vomiting, respiratory depression, hypotension or hypertension, vasospastic reactions, convulsion, coma. Management: Symptomatic treatment. Activated charcoal may be given within 1 hour of ingestion of a toxic dose. Alternatively, may consider gastric lavage within 1 hour of ingestion of a potentially life-threatening overdose. Maintain adequate circulation to prevent onset of gangrene. Administer vasodilators (e.g. Na nitroprusside) to treat severe arterial vasospasms. Give heparin and dextran 40 to reduce the risk of thrombosis. To treat severe ischaemic pain, administer analgesics.
Tương tác
Increased vasopressor action of vasoconstrictors and sympathomimetics. Enhanced uterine action of prostaglandins and vice versa. Diminished uterotonic effect with inhalation anaesthetics (e.g. halothane, cyclopropane, isoflurane, desflurane, sevoflurane).
Oxytocin: Increased risk of arrhythmia with drugs that prolong QT interval.
Ergometrine: Reduced therapeutic effect with CYP3A4 inducers. Increased risk of ergot toxicity with CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g. erythromycin, clarithromycin, ritonavir, indinavir, nelfinavir, delavirdine, ketoconazole, itraconazole, voriconazole, cimetidine). Enhance vasopressor effects of triptans. Potentiated vasoconstrictive action with β-blockers. Diminished therapeutic efficacy of glyceryl trinitrate and other antianginal drugs.

Tác dụng
Description: Mechanism of Action: Oxytocin and ergometrine acts on the uterus via different but complimentary mechanisms.
Oxytocin, a cyclic nonapeptide, activates G-protein-coupled receptors at the uterus which causes an increase in intracellular Ca levels in uterine myofibrils, thus promoting uterine contractions.
Ergometrine, an ergot alkaloid, acts on the 5-HT2 and α-adrenergic receptors to produce a sustained tonic uterine action.
Synonym: ergonovine. Onset: Oxytocin: IM: 3-5 minutes.
Ergometrine: 2-5 minutes. Duration: Oxytocin: 2-3 hours.
Ergometrine: ≥3 hours. Pharmacokinetics: Absorption: Rapidly absorbed after IM administration. Distribution: Crosses placenta, enters breast milk. Metabolism: Oxytocin: Metabolised in the liver and kidneys.
Ergometrine: Metabolised in the liver. Excretion: Via urine as unchanged drug.
Oxytocin: Elimination half-life: 3-20 minutes.
Ergometrine: Elimination half-life: 30-120 minutes.
