Popis: Experiments with pregnant and nonpregnant rats have shown that aroxaprostol, a group F2 alpha prostaglandin, injected intravenously and intramuscularly in a dose of 50 micrograms/kg, stimulates the uterine bioelectric activity, increasing both the amplitude and frequency of biopotentials, this evidencing intensification of its contractility. Aroxaprostol has shown an abortive effect, that was related to the luteolytic effect of the drug, manifesting by reduction of progesterone level in the ovaries.
