About Tosiban 6.75Mg 0.9Ml Inj

Tosiban 6.75Mg 0.9Ml Inj belongs to a class of medications called ‘tocolytic agents. It is used in adult women from week 24 to week 33 of the pregnancy to delay the premature birth of the baby.

Tosiban 6.75Mg 0.9Ml Inj contains Atosiban, which works by weakening the contractions of the uterus. It also reduces the frequency with which contractions occur. It accomplishes this by inhibiting the function of oxytocin, a natural hormone in your body that causes uterine contractions.
