We used to do experiments on pithed frogs to see the effects of various drugs on heart and GI system. This was in pharmacology practicals.
Is this still being done or has this practice being dispensed with?
No they aren’t done in mbbs anymore bt i guess they still use frogs n other animals for pharmacology residency

Clinical trials might include frogs however, I never dissected a frog during medicine so, maybe they aren’t used in medical field anymore, Even during high school biology
