Rtcarb 100mcg Injection


Product introduction

Rtcarb 100mcg Injection is a medicine used to treat bleeding in women who have just had a baby. In some women, the womb (uterus) doesn’t contract (shrink) quickly enough after delivery. This makes it more likely that they’ll bleed more than normal. Rtcarb 100mcg Injection makes the womb contract and helps reduce the risk of bleeding.

Rtcarb 100mcg Injection is used in Pre-term labor.

Uses of Rtcarb Injection

Benefits of Rtcarb Injection

In Prevention of Postpartum Bleeding

Rtcarb 100mcg Injection helps control excessive bleeding post delivery. This helps prevent severe loss of blood that can lead to drop in blood pressure, shock, and even death if not controlled in time. This drug helps with the proper contraction of the uterus, and therefore, prevents hemorrhage and further complications.

Side effects of Rtcarb Injection

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them

How to use Rtcarb Injection

How Rtcarb Injection works

Rtcarb 100mcg Injection belongs to a class of medicines called oxytocin receptor agonists. Oxytocin is the hormone that helps in muscle contraction during labor. This medicine binds with oxytocin receptors present on the smooth muscles of the uterus and helps in muscle contractions. These rhythmic contractions of the uterus help in childbirth and prevent excessive bleeding after childbirth.

Heavy bleeding is expected after a delayed period. Try Tranexa tablets to control the bleeding.

Hi dear. Usually bleeding decreases while on Diane 35. Also amount if bleeding would depend on how you are taking the pills. However don't worry, decrease in bleeding is expected.
