Committee Opinion No. 455: Magnesium sulfate before anticipated preterm birth for neuroprotection.
Obstetrics and Gynecology 2010 March

Physicians electing to use magnesium sulfate for fetal neuroprotection should develop specific guidelines regarding inclusion criteria, treatment regimens, concurrent tocolysis, and monitoring in accordance with one of the larger trials.
