Description

Carboprost CAS NO 71773-79-0 is a synthetic prostaglandin analog of PGF2α, serving as a potent oxytocic agent. Its primary value lies in its reliable and controlled biological activity for inducing uterine contractions and managing postpartum hemorrhage. This high-purity active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) is essential for manufacturers in the pharmaceutical industry developing critical obstetric and gynecological therapeutics.

Application

• Pharmaceutical API: Core active ingredient in injectable formulations for the induction of labor and therapeutic abortion.
• Postpartum Hemorrhage (PPH) Management: Key component in medications used to control severe bleeding after childbirth.
• Gynecological Therapeutics: Used in treatments for uterine atony and other conditions requiring controlled uterine stimulation.
• Veterinary Medicine: Employed in animal husbandry for parturition induction and reproductive management in livestock.
• Research & Development: Standard compound for pharmacological studies targeting the prostaglandin receptor pathway.
• Reference Standard: Serves as a high-purity calibrant in analytical laboratories for quality control testing of related drug products.
