Abstract:
According to the WHO herbal medicine are the medicinal products that contain an active herbal ingredient in aerial or underground parts of a plant. The use of herbal formulations now-a-days is increasing rapidly and due to this it was thought to make an anti-Urolithiatic herbal formulation with a reduced dosage and enhanced onset of action. Out of three herbal plants namely;
Lycopodium clavatum, Berberis Vulgaris and Smilax Officinalis used for Urolithiasis, it was found by
in-vitro screening that
Lycopodium clavatum had excellent activity. To assess the pharmacokinetics various tests were performed namely,
in-vitro dissolution study of calcium oxalate crystals, %inhibition of calcium oxalate crystals, whereas the cytotoxicity was tested by MTT Assay.
