15(S)-15-methylProstaglandin F2α (15(S)-15-methyl PGF2α) has been shown to have potent uterine stimulant and abortifacient properties when administered intramuscularly to induce labor. 15(S)-15-methyl PGF2α isopropylester is a lipophilic analog of 15(S)-15-methyl PGF2α methylester, which may be hydrolyzed in vivo to the fully active free acid.
