  1. Brethine not given for PTL AND Asthma???

    sandy27sunshine replied to sandy27sunshine's topic in Ob/Gyn
    Exactly!...that's my question! Terb is not contraindicated in pregnancy (except near delivery since it's a tocolytic). It is given to pregnant women with asthma and given to stop preterm labor...I have no idea why I'm being told that when a women with asthma is in preterm labor that you can't give brethine?!! I'm waiting for a response from my professor, and I'll be happy to share what I find out. Thanks for replying.

  2. Brethine not given for PTL AND Asthma???

    sandy27sunshine posted a topic in Ob/Gyn
    I'm a nursing student in my maternal child rotation. In one of my lectures, we learned that Brethine is to be avoided in pt.s with preterm labor AND asthma. I don't understand the rationale for this. Brethine is given to pregnant women with asthma for acute attacks, and it is used to stop contractions in preterm labor. I don't understand why it is avoided in patients with both: asthma and in preterm labor? Can someone explain the rationale for this to me?
