BENEFITS OF CERVIPRIME VAGINAL GEL

In Induction of labour

Cerviprime 0.5mg Gel contains a natural substance (prostaglandin) called Dinoprostone, that your body makes in preparation for labour or delivery of a full term baby. It softens and widens the opening of the womb and increases contractions of the uterus. This helps the baby to come out of the mother’s womb with ease and prevents any complications involved with childbirth.

HOW CERVIPRIME VAGINAL GEL WORKS
