We experienced a patient with pulmonary edema caused by treatment with ritodrine. A 40-year-old pregnant woman had been treated with intravenous ritodrine to prevent premature uterine contraction. After 24 hours, she complained of acute dyspnea. Chest X-ray showed a butterfly shadow and bilateral effusion. We considered pulmonary edema associated with ritodrine, because the dyspnea had developed just after taking the medication and no other causes were evident. As there was the risk of progression to respiratory failure, caesarean section was performed. After surgery, the respiratory failure progressed, which we managed successfully with noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV).
