Tocolytics are a diverse class of labor-suppressing medications used primarily to manage acute preterm labor and delay preterm delivery.
Although they comprise pharmacologically distinct agents—including beta-2 adrenergic receptor agonists, calcium channel blockers, cyclooxygenase inhibitors, and oxytocin receptor antagonists—they collectively act by relaxing uterine smooth muscle and inhibiting myometrial contractions.
Rather than halting delivery indefinitely, their principal therapeutic role is to provide a critical short-term delay, typically 48 hours.
This window allows for the administration of antenatal corticosteroids to accelerate fetal lung maturation, neuroprotective magnesium sulfate, or maternal transfer to a facility equipped for high-risk neonatal intensive care.
