METHYLERGOMETRINE MALEATE - Introduction
Methylergonovine maleate salt, the chemical name is formergolide maleate, is a compound with medicinal properties.
Properties: Methylergonovine maleate salt is a crystalline powder, often in the form of white or white yellow solid. It is insoluble in water, but more soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone. It is high in thermal stability.
use: Methylergonovine maleate salt is mainly used in the field of medicine. It is a strong contractile agent and is widely used to control postpartum and postoperative bleeding, especially uterine bleeding. In addition, it can also be used to treat gynecological diseases such as insufficient contractions and habitual abortion.
Preparation: Methylergonovine maleate salt was prepared from ergonovine via methylation reaction. First, ergometrine reacts with methyl iodide to form methylergometrine. Then, the methyergonovine is reacted with maleic acid and crystallized in a solvent to give Methylergonovine maleate salt.
Safety information: Use caution when using Methylergonovine maleate salt. In the course of medication, should be used in strict accordance with the instructions of the doctor, follow the correct dosage. This compound may cause some side effects, such as dizziness, nausea, vomiting, tachycardia, etc. For pregnant women, lactating women, patients with severe renal dysfunction and bleeding tendency should be used with extreme caution.
