Vivek kumar Dwivedi, Jijeevisha Mishra and Ashok Shrivastava

Liver disease is a worldwide problem. It is an exposed to many kinds of xenobiotics and therapeutic agents. The purpose of this study was to evaluate therapeutic effect of Livartho drug in paracetamol induced hepatic damage Sprague dawley rats. Paracetamol at the dose level of 900mg/kg body weight administered through intraperitoneal route once daily for one week to produced liver damage in rats as manifested by the significantly decrease body weight and feed consumption along with significantly increase liver organ weight and serum levels of aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), total bilirubin, cholesterol and triglyceride and decrease the total protein and albumin levels along with significantly increase myloperoxidase enzyme activity, lipid peroxidation and protein carbonyl levels as compared to control group. The antioxidant parameters such as reduced glutathione (GSH), oxidized glutathione (GSSG), total thiol and GSH/ GSSG ratio were also found lowered in paracetamol treated group as compared with control. After treatment with Livartho drug (206.6 mg/kg body weight) once daily for 16 days to paracetamol treated rats shows significantly lowered the afore mentioned biochemical parameter whereas protein and albumin levels were increased along with significant increased above mentioned antioxidant enzymatic parameters. The results of this study strongly indicate that Livartho drug is most effective medicine which has potent hepatoprotective action and free radical scavenger against paracetamol induced hepatic damage in Sprague dawley rats.
