The effects on arterial blood pressure of the methanol and dichloromethanol extracts from Schinus molle L. were analysed in urethane anaesthetized rats. In normotensive rats, the mean arterial blood pressure was significantly reduced by the i.v. administration of both extracts. The dichloromethanol extract inhibited the effects of noradrenaline on arterial blood pressure in the anaesthetized rat and it reduced the maximal contractile effect (Emax) induced by noradrenaline on rat vas deferens in the organ bath. However, the methanol extract did not modify the effects of noradrenaline in the evaluated tests.
