The present study was focused to evaluate the hypoglycemic and antidiabetic activity of Maddi Dicare the poly ‐herbal formulation, in both normal and experimentally induced hyperglycemic (Streptozotocin ) rats. Different doses of poly herbal formulation (50, 100 and 200 mg/kg) was administered in rats orally. At the end of the treatment period, the serum from normal and diabetic animals was subjected to the estimation of blood sugar, using glucose kits. Effect of Polyherbal formulation on glucose tolerance was also carried out. It was found to produce significant hypoglycemic activity in both normal and diabetic animals, which could be compared to glibenclamide (10 mg/kg). The Poly‐herbal formulation was found to increase the glucose tolerance in normal rats. The present study demonstrates that herbal formulation exhibits promising anti‐diabetic activity and helps to maintain good glycemic and metabolic control. It also proved hypoglycemic and antidiabetic activity in a dose dependent manner.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
