RESUMEN
Our experiments showed that papaverine inhibits sugar absorption in vivo as well as in vitro. Papaverine blocks the absorption of sugar both in healthy and diabetic animals. Oral administration of papaverine significantly reduced blood sugar level but after an hour blood sugar level showed tendency to come back to the initial levels that were characteristic for these diabetic dogs. Dietary supplement made of herbal remedies and papaverine has proven to be quite effective in reducing body weight in dogs. For a month, dogs with initial overweight lost on average more than 1 kg (10+%), that is a very good result for their size.
