[Possible effects of propranolol on the estrous cycle of the rat]
Abstract:
Propranolol effects on oestrous cycle of the rat have been studied by daily vaginal smears for twenty one days with doses nearby similar to those used in psychiatric disorders (e.g. 3, 10 and 30 mg.kg(-1). Our data showed that propranolol did not modify the evolution of of oestrous cycles even if plasma prolactin levels have been increased by the highest dose used (30 mg.kg(-1).
