These diseases and conditions include inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

Abstract Aim: The study was designed to evaluate the antidiarrhoeal property of the methanol extract of the fruit of Adansonia digitata using laboratory animal models. Materials and Methods : The acute oral toxicity (LD50 ) of the extract was determined in mice, while the antidiarrhoeal effect of different doses of the extract was evaluated in both mice and rats. The effect of the extract at doses of 300, 700 and 1000 mg/kg were tested against intestinal transit time, magnesium sulphate-induced gastrointestinal motility test and castor oil- induced diarrhoea in mice. -

In Vivo Evaluation of Antidiarrhoeal Activity of the Leaves of Azima Tetracantha Linn
Vol.5(8), pp. 140-144, December, 2013 DOI: 10.5897/IJNAM2013.0152 International Journal of Nutrition and ISSN 2141-2340 ©2013 Academic Journals http://www.academicjournals.org/IJNAM Metabolism Full Length Research Paper In vivo evaluation of antidiarrhoeal activity of the leaves of Azima tetracantha Linn V. Hazeena Begum*, M. Dhanalakshmi and P. Muthukumaran Department of Siddha Medicine, Faculty of Science, Tamil University, Vakaiyur, Thanjavur 613 010, Tamilnadu, India. Accepted 3 October, 2013 The aqueous crude extract of the leaves of Azima tetracantha was studied for its phytochemical constituents and antidiarrhoeal activity using castor oil-induced diarrhoea and castor oil-induced enteropooling in rats. The phytochemical studies of the aqueous extract revealed the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins and saponins. The extract showed significant (p < 0.001) protection against castor oil-induced diarrhoea and castor oil-induced enteropooling at (100 mg/kg). The presence of some of the phytochemicals in the root extract may be responsible for the observed effects, and also the basis for its use in traditional medicine as antidiarrhoeal drug. Key words: Azima tetracantha, enteropooling, anti-diarrhoeal. INTRODUCTION Diarrhoea is characterized by increased frequency of powerful diuretic given in rheumatism, dropsy, dyspepsia bowel movement, wet stool and abdominal pain and chronic diarrhoea and as a stimulant tonic after (Ezekwesili et al., 2004). It is a leading cause of confinement (Nadkarni, 1976).
