Material and Methods: Study was conducted in Dr. Ulhas Patil Medical College and Hospital Jalgaon, Kh, Maharashtra. Total uncomplicated 140 full term patients were studied, 70 patients with injection drotaverine hydrochloride and 70 controls. In both the groups 35 primigravidas and 35 multigravidas each. Results and Conclusion: Injection Drotaverine Hydrochloride during active phase of labour increases rate of cervical dilatation and decreases duration significantly.
