title: The zoapatle XIV--the effect of oral administration of zoapatle upon progesterone plasma levels in pregnant rabbits.
abstract: Oral administration of zoapatle aqueous crude extract (ZACE) made from Montanoa tomentosa or frutescens at doses of 5 mg/day from days 3 through 17 of pregnancy in rabbit, did not modify the normal plasma levels of progesterone. Pregnancy and delivery were similar in controls and zoapatle-treated animals.
