Labor was induced with oral prostaglandin (PGE2) without amniotomy in 20 patients (10 nulliparae and 10 multiparae) with hypertension, whether or not associated with edema and/or proteinuria. An average dose of 8 mg was required to achieve effective uterine contractility in both nulliparae and multiparae. Multiparae required only a mean dose of 12 mg but nulliparae a dose of 18 mg to achieve delivery. The mean duration of labor was slightly longer in both nulliparae and multiparae than that achieved with fast escalating doses of i.v. oxytocin. The need for analgesia was greater in oxytocin-induced patients than in the prostaglandin-induced patients. Otherwise no differences were found between the two groups.
