Evaluation of Abortifacient Effect of Rumex nepalensis Spreng Among Pregnant Swiss Albino Rats: Laboratory-Based Study.

In general, our study showed that R. nepalensis had a significant abortifacient activity that testifies its traditional dibs. Therefore, the use of this plant should be avoided in pregnant women to minimize unintended abortion and further studies are needed to know its mechanism of activity and to identify the phytochemicals corresponding to this activity. Checking its efficacy on other species is also needed.
