As per suggestion of WHO, treatment of diarrhoea with traditional medicine is the main focus of our present studies. The present study is designed to evaluate the anti-diarrhoeal activity of crude methanol extract of Urena sinuata L. (U. sinuata) and its fractions.
Methods: Crude methanol extracts are obtained by in vacue methods and its fractionating is done by Kupchan partitioning method. The anti-diarrhoeal activity is screened by castor oil-induced diarrhoea, castor oil-induced enteropooling and gastrointestinal motility test.
Results: The diarrheal severity was reduced significantly (P
