Abstract

The effects of two uterotonics, Oxytocin and Ergotocin, on postpartum lactation were observed and compared in this study. 30 puerperants were given Oxytocin and another 30 puerperants were given Ergotocin during delivery. The result showed that the time of lactation for the Oxytocin group was earlier than that of the Ergotocin group. The amount of lactation of the Oxytocin group was also much more than that of the Ergotocin group. This study indicated that the rate of breast-feeding may increase if the uterotonics are used properly during delivery.
