Yutopar Side Effects, Overdose and Pregnancy Information

Yutopar is a beta-2–adrenergic agonist stimulant which acts on beta2 receptors found in uterine muscle. Yutopar lessens uterine contractility and hence acts as a uterine relaxant. Yutopar is used in the management of premature labor. Main ingredient in Yutopar is Ritodrine hydrochloride.
