Hi thanks for your question.
You started with preterm labour and 3 injections of terbutaline were given to you. Now you’re having lot of mucus plugs brown coloured, abdominal pain and diarrhea. These are not side effects of terbutaline.Terbutaline is bronchodilator used for bronchial asthma, but it does help in preventing premature labour. Most probably you have developed intestinal infection and consultation with treating gynecologist is advisable.
Hope this answers your question.
