Uterotonic agents for first‐line treatment of postpartum haemorrhage: a network meta‐analysis

This review (7 trials; n=3738) concludes oxytocin as first‐line treatment of PPH is probably more effective than misoprostol with less side‐effects, and the addition of misoprostol to oxytocin is likely of no benefit and is associated with more side‐effects.
