Hepatoprotective effect of andrographolide on paracatemol induced liver damage in BALB/C mice
Andrographis Paniculata has been widely used as hepatoprotectant for liver damage problem. The active compound called andrographolide is reported to be hepatoprotective and its protection against paracetamol-induced was better than that produced by silybin. In this study, the in vivo hepatoprotectiv...
