title: Effect of toxic doses of progesterone on hepatotoxic effects of tetracycline.
abstract: The combined effects of high doses of tetracycline and progesterone on parameters indicative for liver function (serum transaminases and urea, serum and liver triglycerides and cholesterol) have been studied in mice. Apart from disturbance of cholesterol metabolism tetracycline-induced liver dysfunction was not aggravated by progesterone.
