	<li>In patients who may not have an adequate uterine contraction after a single injection of carbetocin, more aggressive treatment with additional doses of oxytocin or ergometrine is warranted.</li>
	<li>As carbetocin is closely related in structure to oxytocin, hyponatraemia may occur.</li>
	<li>Carbetocin should be used cautiously in the presence of epilepsy, migraine, asthma or any state in which a rapid addition to extracellular water may produce hazard for an already overburdened system.</li>
	<li>Patients with eclampsia and pre-eclampsia should be monitored for changes in blood pressure.</li>
	<li>Carbetocin is not recommended for use in elderly patients.</li>
