Abstract
The use of long-acting oxytocin analogs, characterized chemically by replacement of the disulfide bridge by a thioether bridge, in safely inducing labor in mammals is disclosed. Of particular importance in the use of these compounds is the safety factor, that is, the absence of uterine tetany, dangerous to both mother and fetus, at dosage levels required for induction of complete labor. Induction of complete labor can be accomplished with one or, at most, two single injections.
