    This review covers uterine contraction physiology and antispasmodic drugs used in France. Careful prescribing is essential due to potential severe side effects from improper use.

    Area of Science:

    • Obstetrics and Gynecology
    • Pharmacology

    Context:

    • Uterine contractions are a key physiological process in obstetrics.
    • Antispasmodic medications are frequently used to manage uterine activity.

    Purpose:

    • To summarize the anatomical and physiological basis of uterine contractions and their inhibition.
    • To review antispasmodic drugs currently used in France, detailing their pharmacology, administration, tolerance, and efficacy.

    Summary:

    • The review details the mechanisms of uterine contractions and inhibition.
    • Pharmacological profiles, maternal/fetal tolerance, indications, contraindications, and efficacy of French antispasmodics are presented.
    • Guidance on product selection and combination therapy is discussed.

    Impact:
