Abstract
Objective: Herbal therapies had become an integral part of health care sciences. Urolithiasis is a condition in which crystals in the urine combine to form stones. In our work we underwent research on antiurolithiatic activity of herbal medicine. Method: Antiurolithiatic activity of Tribulus terrestris (TT) fruits and Punica granatum (PG) seeds by using Ethylene glycol induced rat model. Result: Treatment of TT fruits and PG seeds (100mg+ 100mg) extracts showed to prevent the elevation of serum and urine levels of urinary markers (BUN, Urea, Uric acid and Creatinine). |
Conclusion: Further study is needed to explore the exact active constituent of plant and mechanism of action responsible for Antiurolithiatic activity
