초록

Chronic oral toxicity studies (90 days) on aqueous and methanol extracts of the whole plant of Peristrophe paniculata (Forssk) Brummitt were carried out in Wistar rats. The dosage was 200 mg/kg/day, p.o. for both the extracts. All external morphological and biochemical changes, in addition to body weight and vital organ weights were recorded. During this investigation, no significant mortality was observed. The results showed that both the extracts were devoid of any toxicity at the dose level studied as compared to the control group.
