Baby's Heartbeat Stopped In 2 Days After Taking Isoxsuprine (Top voted first)

Updated

I was 34 weeks pregnant to a healthy baby (yes, very healthy, as reflected in the ultrasound monitoring) at the time i was prescribed isoxsuprine (isoxilan) in order to stop premature labor. That was the only drug prescribed and the only one i took 3x daily. 2 days after taking isoxsuprine, baby's heartbeat stopped. I made a research on the drug as i was told that the drug is banned in other countries except for some like 3rd world countries. Upon internet research i was able to read that information and much more as i read that isoxsuprine in some countries is "for veterinary use". What does it mean? Is isoxsuprine a killer drug?

Hi Carla,

My Doctor prescribed me Tablet Duvadilin , i had complained of pre-term labour and my doctor instead of taking the decision of delivering the child injected me with Duvadilin and presribed me to take tablet Duvadilin 10 mg for a week. After taking tablet for 3 days, my baby's heart beat stopped and i delivered a stillborn child. How i wish i have seen this post of your before. Guys its a humble request to all the pregnant ladies to "DO NOT TAKE DUVADILIN TABLET"

There are always possible risks to the unborn child when medications are taken. Your dr should have discussed this with you before you took the medication.
