Indication :

Allylestrenol Tablets 5mg- The medication is a synthetic progesterone that is used to prevent premature labor, recurrent miscarriages, and threatened abortion by supporting uterine lining. This improves placental blood flow and reduces uterine contractions. 

The tablet is widely used and clinically trusted because it enhances the attachment of the embryo to the uterine wall and relaxes the uterine muscles which prevents threatened or recurrent miscarriages.

It is recognized for its unique trophoblastic property that helps in increasing progesterone production in early pregnancy. Despite not being FDA-approved in the U.S., the tablet has been a staple in medical practice for over five decades in various countries for high-risk obstetrics. The tablets should be taken one to three times daily, depending upon conditions. Also, it can be taken with or without food.

Mechanism of Allylestrenol Tablets 

Allylestrenol binds to progesterone receptors that helps in maintaining the uterine lining and prevents its shedding. It stimulates Beta2-adrenergic receptors in the uterus which leads to reduced uterine contractility. It enhances the function of the placenta, improves blood flow and increases the production of natural progesterone. It also modulates the maternal immune response to prevent the rejection of the embryo.
