Methylergometrine
Methylergometrine is a medication used to help control bleeding after childbirth by stimulating the uterus to contract and reduce bleeding. It works by activating certain muscle receptors in the uterus, encouraging it to tighten. It's typically administered by a healthcare provider in a hospital setting. While effective, it can have side effects like high blood pressure or nausea, so it is used carefully under medical supervision. Methylergometrine is an important medication in obstetrics to manage postpartum bleeding and ensure the mother’s safety.
