Pharmacology
Synthetic progesterone derivative allylestrenol is used to treat threatening pregnancies. It can help women avoid preterm labor and give birth to a healthy infant. It promotes the secretory phase in the myometrium, allowing the fertilized ovum to develop. It has a tocolytic action, which means it lowers myometrium oxytocin sensitivity. It promotes the formation of mammary gland acinus, trophoblast secretory activity, and adrenal gland aldosterone production. Allylestrenol has a variety of β-adrenergic effects as well. As a result, it increases the release of placental hormones by stimulating the synthesis of placental progesterone in the body.

Threatened abortion: 1 tablet three times daily until symptoms disappear.
Habitual abortion: 1-2 tablets daily as soon as pregnancy is diagnosed. The administration should be continued for at least one month after the end of the critical period.
Threatened premature delivery: Dosage must be determined individually. High dosages (up to 40 mg daily) have been used.
In case of a missed dose, it should be taken as soon as the patient remembers & she should continue the regular dosing schedule. A double dose is not recommended.
