HPLC profile and antihyperglycemic effect of ethanol extracts of Andrographis paniculata in normal and streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats

Andrographis paniculata is a Malaysian traditional herb for treatment of fever-causing diseases and diabetes. The aim of the present study was to examine the antihyperglycemic effects of different extracts (95, 50, and 20% ethanol extracts and water extracts) of A. paniculata in normal and stre...
