EVALUATION OF NEPHRO-PROTECTIVE AND ANTI-NEPHRO-TOXIC PROPERTIES OF RAKTA PUNARNAVA ROOTS (Boerhaavia diffusa, L.) GOKSHUR FRUITS (Tribulus terrestris, L.) IN DRUG INDUCED NEPHROTOXICITY
Journal Title: International Research Journal of Pharmacy (IRJP) - Year 2012, Vol 3, Issue 7
Abstract
Kwath of Rakta Punarnava roots (Boerhaavia diffusa, L.) and Gokshur fruits (Tribulus terrestris,L.) were tried for their Nephro-protective and anti-nephro-toxic properties by using Gentamycin induced Nephro-toxic model in Wistar strain Albino Rats.
