Antiulcerogenic Effects of Terminalia chebula (Retz.) in Pylorus Ligated Rats 1Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Doctor Hari Singh Gour Vishwavidyalaya Sagar-(M.P.) India2MES College of Pharmacy Sonai (M.H.) IndiaA R T I C L E I N F O A B S T R A C T Keywords:
The cause of ulceration in patients is mainly due to hyper secretion of gastric juice and also due
to hyper secretion of pepsin. In traditional system of medicine a number of herbal preparations
have been used for the treatment of peptic ulcers. The marketed poly-herbal formulation and
many synthetic drugs has been used for the treatment of gastric-ulcer diseases. In view of this, in
present study we have to evaluate the anti-ulcer activity of Terminalia chebula. Study wascarried out, on pyloric ligation induced ulcers in rats pretreated with the doses of 1ml/kgAbsolute ethanol, Extracts and fraction of Terminalia chebula, Omeprazole: 20 mg/kg body wt. After 4 hour in pyloric ligation method induced method rat was sacrificed and stomach wasremoved for observation of various biochemical and histo-pathological parameters such as pH ofgastric content, free acidity, total acidity and ulcer index were determined. The results ofpharmacological activity led to the conclusion that the Alcoholic extract and Ethyl acetatefraction of alcoholic extract exhibited activity that is more significant. Ethanol extract and its
Article History:
Ethyl acetate fraction significantly raised the pH of gastric content and thus reducing the level of
acidity in the stomach. It lowered the free and total acidity and ulcer index as compared to
