Abstract
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the anti hyperglycemic activity of methanolic extract of leaves of Salacia fruticosa (Family:Hippocrataceae) in alloxan induced diabetic rats. The hyperglycemic rats were divided into different groups and were treated with methanolic extract of S. fruticosa at a dose of 125 & 250mg/kg. Treatment with extract produced a significant dose dependent reduction in blood glucose levels and this anti hyperglycemic activity was comparable with the reference standard, metformin. The results of the present study revealed the anti-diabetic activity of methanolic extract of leaves of Salacia fruticosa in alloxan induced diabetic rats.
