Abstract
Ginger, the common spice, has recently been found to act as a potent inhibitor of thromboxane synthetase, raising levels of prostacyclin, without a concomitant rise in PGE2 or PGF2 alpha. Indications for use of ginger to replace either thromboxane inhibitors having serious side effects or prostacyclin are given.Entities:
