If vomiting occurs at any time during the treatment period, examine the vomitus for the presence of an intact dinoprostone tablet. If one is found, the dose should be repeated at once. If 2 successive doses are vomited and an intact tablet is seen each time the patient should be allowed to rest until the next scheduled dose. In this event, dinoprostone administration should be stopped to allow stabilization and evaluation. If dinoprostone fails to elicit regular uterine contraction by the end of 8 hours, the case should be classified as a failed induction.
Subsequent management is left to the physician's discretion.
The total treatment period with dinoprostone should not, in any instance, exceed 18 hours. Glass bottles of 10. Once bottle is opened, use tablets within 90 days.
