Antianaemic Potential of Swertia chirata on Phenylhydrazine Induced Reticulocytosis in Rats
Journal Title: American Journal of Phytomedicine and Clinical Therapeutics - Year 2013, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
The antianemic potential of Swertia chirata extracts on phenylhydrazine induced anemia in rats was investigated. The ethanolic extract of Swertia chirata leaves is evaluated on anaemia model of rat induced by intraperitoneal injection of phenylhydrazine at 40 mg/kg for 2 days. Oral administration of this plant extracts at 200 mg/kg/day and 400 mg/kg/day, to the rats previously treated with phenylhydrazine, increased the concentration of haemoglobin, red blood cells number, haematocrit and reticulocytes rate.
