Tidilan Injection 2ml

Introduction About TIDILAN INJECTION

TIDILAN INJECTION contains Isoxsuprine which belongs to the group of medicines
called Vasodilators. It is used in the management of premature labor (when the
uterus contraction starts for birth too early than usual) or threatened
abortion, cerebral vascular insufficiency (poor blood flow to the brain) and
arteriosclerosis obliterans (hardening of the arteries).

TIDILAN INJECTION is also used to manage Buerger's disease (blood vessels become
inflamed, swell and can become blocked with blood clots) and Raynaud’s
phenomenon (decreased blood flow to the nose, ears, fingers, toes, nipples or
knees). You should avoid participating in any stressful or heavy activities in
order to manage premature labor.

Avoid smoking tobacco during TIDILAN INJECTION management as it can further
constrict your blood vessels. TIDILAN INJECTION should not be used immediately
postpartum (after delivering a baby) or if you have a bleeding disorder, heart
disease, severe anemia, premature detachment of the placenta and premature labor
if there is infection.

TIDILAN INJECTION should be used in pregnant women only if the potential
benefits outweigh the potential risks to mother and her baby. There are no
reports of problems with TIDILAN INJECTION use in breastfeeding babies but
consult your doctor before receiving it.

TIDILAN INJECTION is not recommended for use in children. The most common side
effects of receiving TIDILAN INJECTION are fast heartbeat and vomiting. Contact
your physician if any of the symptoms deteriorate.

How TIDILAN INJECTION Works

TIDILAN INJECTION manages premature labor by managing the contractions of the
smooth muscles in the uterus. In peripheral vascular disease, it helps in
widening of blood vessels to increase blood flow, thereby improving blood
circulation to certain parts of the body (such as the hands, feet and brain).
