The zoapatle XIV--the effect of oral administration of zoapatle upon progesterone plasma levels in pregnant rabbits.
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.
