✦ Synopsis

The antidiabetic activity of Leucas lavandulaefolia Rees (Family -Labiatae) extract on streptozotocin (STZ) induced diabetic rats has been investigated. A methanol extract of the herb at doses of 200 and 400 mg/kg, and glybenclamide (1 mg/kg) were administered concurrently to STZ-diabetic rats. The extract caused a significant reduction of blood glucose levels in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats by 29.8% (p < 0.001) compared with control groups.
