fenprostalene

02/01/1996 - "In this study, 90% of animals treated with fenprostalene calved within a 20-h period, but with a high incidence of retained placenta."
09/01/1987 - "The longer biological half-life for fenprostalene than for prostaglandin F(2alpha) provided no improvement in increasing synchrony of parturition or decreasing frequency of retained placenta."
02/01/1996 - "Estradiol-17 beta benzoate did not reduce incidence of retained placenta in animals treated with fenprostalene (group B vs. group D) but tended to reduce incidence in uninduced animals (group A vs. group C). "
02/01/1996 - "Effects of fenprostalene and estradiol-17 beta benzoate on parturition and retained placenta in dairy cows and heifers."
09/01/1987 - "The incidence of placenta retained for >24 h was higher for induced than spontaneous parturition (21.0 vs 0.0%), but it did not differ (P >0.1) between cows treated with prostaglandin F(2alpha) or fenprostalene (19.2 vs 22.6%). "

11/01/1983 - " was concluded that, if correctly diagnosed, luteal cysts can be successfully treated with fenprostalene, and conception rates following treatment can be expected to be normal."
11/01/1983 - "Treatment with fenprostalene was very effective for luteal cysts: a high percentage of treated cows exhibited estrus within seven days after treatment. "
11/01/1983 - "Sixty-two dairy cows diagnosed as having cystic ovarian degeneration were used to study the correlation between rectal palpation findings and plasma progesterone concentrations and the response of cysts to treatment using fenprostalene, a luteolytic agent. "

04/01/1993 - "It was concluded that the administration of fenprostalene following fertirelin treatment is effective in shortening the interval from treatment to conception in cows with follicular cysts."
11/01/1983 - "However, cows diagnosed as having follicular cysts, but with progesterone concentrations of 1 ng/mL or more, responded better to fenprostalene treatment than cows with low progesterone concentrations.It"
04/01/1993 - "Effect of fenprostalene 14 days after fertirelin treatment on intervals from treatment to conception in cows with follicular cysts diagnosed by milk progesterone test."

09/01/1997 - "Postpartum plasma PGF metabolite profile in cows with dystocia and/or retained placenta, and effect of fenprostalene on uterine involution and reproductive performance."
09/01/1997 - "Objectives of this study were to show postpartum plasma PGF2 alpha metabolite (PGFM) profile, to clarify whether endogenous PGF2 alpha plays a certain role in the uterine involution in cows with dystocia and/or retained placenta, and to examine the effects of fenprostalene, a long-acting PGF2 alpha analog, on the uterine involution and reproductive performance of the cows with abnormal puerperium. "

12/15/1995 - "Treatment with oxytetracycline and fenprostalene (group 2) increased (P < 0.05) the frequency of pyometra. "
