Abstract
The present study was made to investigate an anti-hyperglycemic effect of Costus igneus in alloxan induced diabetic mellitus. Diabetes was induced by alloxan (150mg/kg i.p) into rats. Crude extract of leaves of Costus igneus was used in alloxan induced diabetic rats. Glibenclamide used as a standard antidiabetic drug in one group to compare the effect with test drug.
