In Vivo Study to Evaluate the Hepatoprotective Activity of Rohitakadi Vati Against Alcohol Induced Subacute Hepatotoxicity in Rats

Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This study evaluated the hepatoprotective activity of Rohitakadi Vati, an Ayurvedic formulation, against alcohol-induced subacute hepatotoxicity in Wistar rats. A total of 24 rats were divided into four groups: control, disease control (alcohol), standard control (alcohol + Silymarin), and test (alcohol + Rohitakadi Vati). Over a 28-day period, parameters such as body weight, clinical signs, organ weights, biochemical markers, and histopathological changes were assessed. Results showed that Rohitakadi Vati signicantly reduced alcohol-induced liver damage, as evidenced by improved biochemical parameters and reduced histopathological alterations compared to the disease control group. The study concludes that Rohitakadi Vati exhibits signicant hepatoprotective effects comparable to Silymarin, supporting its potential use in managing alcohol-induced liver damage.
