It has been shown in chronic experiments on dogs that an extract of Achillea asiatica Serg. induces reduction of gastric juice aggressive properties (activity of proteolytic enzymes and acidity) and increase in mucus synthesis and excretory function of the stomach. The effect of the extract depends on the gastric secretion stimulator used. It reduces mainly the proteolytic activity with the use of carbo choline and the content of hydrogen ions with the use of histamine.
