Synergistic Action in Oral Glucose Tolerance Tests between Spilanthes Calva Aerial Parts and Tubers of Colocasia Esculenta
Journal Title: International Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences and Developmental Research - Year 2016, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
Introduction: Diabetes is a debilitating disease characterized by elevated blood glucose levels, which is rapidly r eaching endemic proportions throughout the world including Bangladesh. We had previously evaluated the antihyperglycemic potential of methanolic extract of aerial parts of Spilanthes calva and tubers of Colocasia esculenta. The objective of this study was to determine whether there is any synergistic antihyperglycemic activity between the methanolic extracts of the plant parts of the two plants.
