Essential insights

• Luteolytic Effect: D-Cloprostenol induces regression of the corpus luteum, reducing progesterone production and initiating a new estrous cycle.
• Stimulation of Uterine Contractions: By increasing uterine muscle activity, D-Cloprostenol aids in clearing the uterus in cases of infections or retained fetal membranes.
• Selective Action: Designed to mimic natural prostaglandins, D-Cloprostenol minimizes systemic effects.
