Oxytocin quality: evidence to support updated global recommendations on oxytocin for postpartum hemorrhage

ConclusionsStoring oxytocin from 2 to 8  °C throughout the supply chain is important for maintaining its quality.

National and sub-national policies must prioritize procurement of quality oxyt ocin and require its appropriate storage and management.
