Ritodrine hydrochloride

SKU: orb1308635

Description

Ritodrine hydrochloride is a beta-2 adrenergic agonist that acts as a tocolytic agent by increasing intracellular cAMP, reducing calcium availability, and inhibiting myosin light chain kinase to suppress uterine contractions. It is widely used in obstetric research, with applications in both in vitro studies of smooth muscle physiology and in vivo models of preterm labor.
