It's just a shot. It is given to humans in delivery too. The medical term is Posterior Oxytocin Pituitary (POP). I keep it on hand, and administer with vet recommendations. Usually if my girl is lagging behind and only after the first pup has been whelped. But, always after a whelp has been completed within 12 to 24 hours. It must be done with vet recommendations or administration.

By the way a full bottle, prescribed by the vet is only $12.00, so in retrospect, the shot is not cheap, when the recommendation is only 1/4cc
