| Abstract: | Acute oral toxicity studies on the suspension of some Unani
drugs Azaraqi (Strychnos
nux-vomica Linn.) and Sammulfar
(Arsenious oxide) were carried out on mice and compared to detoxified form. The
effect of detoxifying process was assessed on the maximum tolerance dose of the
test drugs gets affected during the treatment process. From the experimental
studies it was evident that the LD-50 in detoxified form of both the test drugs
found greater than crude materials. |
