چکیده
Objective of the study was to assess the antidiabetic activity of a polyherbal formulation in alloxan induced diabetic rats. Methods: The antidiabetic activity of a polyherbal formulation in alloxan induced diabetic rats was assessed using Alloxan βcytotoxin induced chemical diabetes in a wide variety of wister albino rats. Result: The polyherbal formulation contain the following plants leaves of Caesalpinia bonducella, Mucona puriens, Pongamia pinnata. The extracts were prepared by continous hot soxhlet extraction using petroleum ether and water. Conclusion: The study reveals that the polyherbal formulations have antidiabetic activity and the action may be due to the restoration or regeneration of β-cells of pancreas.
