โฆ Synopsis
The aqueous extract of the bark of Eysenhardtia polystachya was tested for its antilithiatic and diuretic activity. The urolithiasis was induced experimentally by implantation of a zinc disc in to the urinary bladder of rats. A significant decrease in the weight of stones was observed after treatment in animals that received aqueous extract compared with control groups. This extract showed an increase in the 24 h urine volume compared with the control.
