Valethamate (bromide)

Valethamate bromide is an ester, serving as an effective rapidly acting anticholinergic antispasmodic and muscle relaxant. Valethamate bromide accelerates labor by improving cervical dilation. Valethamate bromide can significantly shorten the labor process and have fewer side effects[1][2].
