In particular, estrogen applied topically may have a different spectrum of side effects than when administered orally, [11] and transdermal estrogens do not affect clotting as they are absorbed directly into the systemic circulation, avoiding first-pass metabolism in the liver.
Buddleja davidii var. alba is endemic to central and western China. [1] The plant has also been treated as a form, and a cultivar ('Alba'). [2] However, Anthonius Leeuwenberg sank var. alba and the other five varieties of davidii as synonyms, [3] considering them to be within the natural variation of a species, a treatment also adopted in the Flora of China published in 1996.
