Summary

This study was planned to fill the gaps regarding the effectiveness of phloroglucinol on the duration of active phase of labor.

Detailed description

In today's era, the focus has shifted from a "wait and watch" policy to "active intervention sooner than later" to enhance better labor outcomes. Using an ideal antispasmodic drug would help achieve a rapid and prolonged effect on cervical dilation, with no adverse impact on uterine contractions or causing uterine inertia. If the current study finds phloroglucinol effective in shortening the duration of the active phase of labor, it would help achieve better patient outcomes.
