Riligol Injection

Product Overview
Riligol Injection is used to manage bleeding in women immediately after childbirth. Sometimes, the uterus does not contract adequately following delivery, which increases the risk of excessive bleeding. This injection stimulates uterine contractions, helping to reduce blood loss and prevent complications.

Administration
Riligol Injection is administered intravenously by healthcare professionals and should never be self-administered. It must only be given after the baby has been delivered. Before treatment, inform your doctor about any existing health conditions.

Possible Side Effects
Common side effects may include nausea, abdominal discomfort, itching, flushing, low blood pressure, headaches, and tremors. If these symptoms worsen or become bothersome, seek medical advice. Notify your healthcare provider immediately if you experience any new or unusual symptoms during treatment.

Precautions
Do not use Riligol Injection if you are allergic to any of its ingredients. It is also contraindicated in individuals with kidney or liver problems, heart conditions, or a history of epilepsy. Inform your doctor if you have migraines, asthma, or preeclampsia. This medication is not suitable for use during pregnancy.
