    Abstract:
    Forty-eight patients affected with missed abortion, intrauterine fetal death and hydatiform mole were treated with vaginal suppositories containing 1 mg of 16,16-dimethyl-trans-delta 2-PGE1 methyl ester (ONO-802). The patients were divided into two treatment groups. The first, Group A, was given one vaginal suppository every 3 h to a maximum of five suppositories. The product of conception was expelled in 95.8% of patients. In Group B the maximum number of suppositories was reduced to three. The product of conception was expelled in 100% of cases and the average duration of treatment was similar to that for the first group. Although side-effects were mild in both groups, they were reduced in the patients of Group B.
