Journal Title: International Journal of Pharma Sciences and Research - Year 2010, Vol 1, Issue 2

Abstract

The aerial parts of [i]Leucas lavandulaefolia[/i] Rees, family Labiatae was tested for hepatoprotective activity against CCl4 in rats. The ethyl acetate extract of [i]Leucas lavandulaefolia[/i] has shown significant activity, lowering the serum enzymes like SGOT and SGPT in rats intoxicated with CCl[sub]4[/sub].
