To assess the benefit of sublingual misoprostol in addition to standard oxytocin in the prevention of post-partum hemorrhage at caesarean section. ⋯ Sublingual misoprostol (in addition to oxytocin) is effective in prevention of post-partum hemorrhage at caesarean sections when compared to oxytocin alone, without major side-effects. Larger studies are needed to confirm our results.
