title: [Treatment of premature labour and antagonization of the side effects of tocolytic therapy with verapamil (author's transl)].
abstract: 167 cases of threatened premature birth were treated with Fenoterol, Fenoterol + Verapamil and Ritodrine. In 70-79% of cases a newborn of over 2500 g was achieved. In 70-76% it was possible to prolong the pregnancy for over 7 days and in 61-64% a gestation age of 37 weeks and more was reached. Special attention was paid to the facts as to whether the general side effects of Fenoterol can be antagonized with Verapamil.
