Pituitrin S.

We manufacture two preparations of Pituitrin-one for use in obstetrics, one for use in surgery. Pituitrin S. (surgical) is twice the strength of Pituitrin O. (obstetrical).

Pituitrin O. is designed for use in the treatment of uterine inertia when there is no mechanical obstacle to a natural delivery.

Pituitrin S. is adapted especially for the treatment of postoperative intestinal paresis with its attendant pain and tympanites, vesical atony with retention of urine, shock, and inaccessible hemorrhage.

Pituitrin O. is supplied in ampoules of 1 mil ( 1 Cc.) (No. 16) and 1⁄2 mil (1⁄2 Cc.) (No. 47), also in 1⁄2-oz. glass-stoppered bottles.

Pituitrin S. is supplied in ampoules of mil (1 Cc.) only (ampoule No. 110).
