Abstract
Urinary stone disorder has afflicted humankind since antiquity and can persist, with serious medical consequences, throughout a patient’s lifetime. The common component of urinary stone is calcium oxalate (CaOx). In spite of tremendous advances in the field of medicine, there is no truly satisfactory drug for the treatment of renal calculi. In the indigenous system of medicine, the leaves of Annona reticulata (Family - Anonaceae) are reported to be useful in the treatment of urinary stones. Hence, in the present study, the Annona reticulata have been selected for their anti urolithiatic activity on experimentally induced urolithiatic rats.
