Misoprostol is used for self-induced abortions in Brazil, where black market prices exceed US$100 per dose. Illegal medically unsupervised misoprostol abortions in Brazil are associated with a lower complication rate than other forms of illegal self-induced abortion, but are still associated with a higher complication rate than legal, medically ...
Alfaprostol is a luteolytic agent used injectably for scheduling of estrus in mares for purposes of planned breeding. It is also used for treating of postweaning anestrus in economically important farm animals.
In the horse breeding industry, the term "half-brother" or "half-sister" only describes horses which have the same dam, but different sires. [6] Horses with the same sire but different dams are simply said to be "by the same sire", and no sibling relationship is implied. [7] "Full" (or "own") siblings have both the same dam and the same sire.
A Reddit user focused on retiring early recently asked an important question. The Redditor described herself as a “horse girl,” and said that her horses cost her $20,000 per year. She’s ...
The American College of Rheumatology and a Canadian consensus report both recommend GI-protective agents such as misoprostol be combined with long term NSAID therapy and a review concluded that diclofenac/misoprostol is a cost effective treatment in patients requiring long term NSAID therapy who are at increased risk of developing gastropathy.

Equine chorionic gonadotropin (acronym given as eCG but not to be confused with ECG) is a gonadotropic hormone produced in the chorion of pregnant mares. Previously referred to as pregnant mare's serum gonadotropin ( PMSG ), the hormone is commonly used in concert with progestogen to induce ovulation in livestock prior to artificial insemination .
For example, at the 2007 Fall Yearling sale at Keeneland, 3,799 young horses sold for a total of $385,018,600, for an average of $101,347 per horse. [2] However, that average sales price reflected a variation that included at least 19 horses that sold for only $1,000 each and 34 that sold for over $1,000,000 apiece.
The cost of equine cloning varies between €200,000 [32] and €300,000, [33] depending on the source. In 2010, clones intended for sporting competitions represented just 22% of operations. [ 34 ] Cloning is therefore mainly carried out in Europe for the purpose of breeding high-performance horses.
