A total of 75 patients had labour induced near term using intravenous oxytocin, prostaglandin E-2 or prostaglandin F-2alpha.

In doses which were similarly effective in inducing labour, both prostaglandins were without the water-retaining effect of oxytocin. Adrenocortical stimulation was greatest with oxytocin. No difference between these agents was observed for the other measurements made.
