hi Jo,
the reason's that cervidil has been
promoted as better than prostin is as you've said: it releases prostin
more slowly and it can be more easily removed. Reality seems to be, (
and the cervidil company figures agrees with this) if correctly
inserted it can cause hyperstimulation after a few hours as it has a
constant release. Prostin gel however works in a curve so peaks after
two to three hours then wears off. It isn't that difficult to get most
prostin gel out if however cervidil is removed once the
hyperstimulation is happening the removal doesn't seem to have much
effect.

Arh, thanks Lisa. That makes sense :)
