Section 4.3: removed contraindications: patients with ruptured membranes, grand multiparae with over 5 previous term pregnancies

Section 4.4: include statements regarding:-

  • the risks of uterine hyperstimulation and uterine rupture and their serious complications, including foetal and neonatal death
  • the recommendation for monitoring of uterine activity and foetal heart rate and appropriate management of the patient if these develop

Section 4.5: the recommendation against the concurrent use of other oxytocic agents and for the appropriate dosing interval for sequential use of dinoprostone and oxytocin (at least 6 hours following administration of PROSTIN).

Section 4.8: to add ‘foetal death, stillbirth and neonatal death’ as an adverse reaction with frequency not known.
