Uses of Dinoprose E-2 3mg Tablet

Dinoprose E-2 3mg Tablet is used in hospital to soften and open the cervix so that labour can begin, usually when a pregnancy has gone past the due date or when there is a medical reason to deliver the baby. It is given as a vaginal gel, tablet or slow-release insert and is used only by obstetric staff with careful monitoring.

How Dinoprose E-2 3mg Tablet works

Dinoprostone is a man-made form of prostaglandin E2, a substance the body naturally produces at the start of labour. It softens and thins the cervix, a process called ripening, and encourages the womb to begin contracting.
