METHODS: The study included 30 pregnant women with normal pregnancies, who were meeting the same criteria. They were divided into three subgroups of 10 patients each and they delivered healthy newborns. Group A was the control group. Metoclopramide 10 mg/h intravenously was given in Group B, while bromocryptine 5 mg per os was given in Group C.
