Abstract :
Over years, preterm birth is the most important determinant of adverse infant outcome in both survival and quality of life.In our study total 54 patients with preterm labour between 28 to 36 weeks of gestation were tocolysed with Nifedipine to increase the intrauterine lifespan of fetus. Close monitoring was done to detect the known side effects of the tocolytic drugs like hypotension, tachycardia, nausea, headache, flushing and palpitation.It was found in this study that Nifedipine significantly arrests the preterm labour with minimal side effects.
