Question Title

* 5. A 32 yo G3P2 parturient with a history of asthma had an induction of labor and normal vaginal delivery with epidural analgesia. After delivery, she was started on a prophylactic oxytocin infusion and continues to bleed. She was given methylergonovine 0.2 mg IM 20 minutes ago and her current QBL is 1235.

Repeat methylergonovine 0.2 mg IM

Tranexamic Acid 1 gm IV

Fibrinogen concentrate 2 gm IV
