What type of medication will the doctor prescribe to deliver stillbirth?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Stillbirth: There are different medications that are given to induce delivery of a still birth. The choices are based upon the gestational age at the time of diagnosis. Usually a combination of prostaglandin and Pitocin (oxytocin) medications are used. Sometimes laminaria are also used. Your physician and institution have protocols that are set up specifically for these situations.
