title: [Effect of the beta receptor blockader carazolol on the dropping and retention of the placenta in the camel (C. dromedarius)].
abstract: The current study was conducted to estimate the time needed for placental dropping and the effect of beta-blocker carazolol (Suacron, Praemix, Mannheim) on placental retention. Carazolol was injected to enhance the placental dropping and also as a prophylactic measure to minimize the incidence of retained foetal membrane in the she-camel. Normal dropping of placenta engaged 49.27 +/- 6.76 minutes. In the treated animals the time needed for normal placental dropping was 33.00 +/- 10.05 minutes when injected with a prophylactic dose of carazolol. It was 38.89 +/- 8.07 minutes when the drug was injected in case of placental retention.
