Journal of Pharmacognosy and Phytochemistry · 2017 · Vol. 6(6) · pp. 1346–1353

Abstract

Liver disease is still a worldwide problem. Cassia arereh is one out of many medicinal plants in Northern Nigeria used for the management of liver diseases. The study was designed to evaluate the hepatoprotective effects of Cassia arereh against CCl4 - induced liver damage in rats. Standard analytical methods were employed in all the parameters assessed. Administration of methanolic leaves extract of C. arereh at doses of 50, 100, 150, 200 mg/kg body weight significantly(P
