[Prevention of premature birth with nylidrin and verapamil (author's transl)].

Abstract

108 cases of threatened premature birth were treated with i.v. drip-infusion, followed by oral treatment with Dilatol and Isoptin. This was successful in 81% of cases. A birth-weight of over 2500 g was considered a positive result. In 14% of cases there were side effects. The results are compared with earlier investigations.
