Abstract
The current study explored the pharmacological approaches to reveal the Herbal
newlinegranules with Hepatoprotective activity. Most of the hepatotoxic chemicals damage liver cells
newlinemainly by inducing lipid peroxidation and other oxidative damages. Liver possesses a unique
newlinemetabolism and plays a pivotal role in the removal of substances from the portal circulation
newlinedue to which it is susceptible to toxicity of drugs, xenobiotics, and oxidative stress. The two
newlinedistinct pathways in liver metabolism occur via cytochrome p-450 and GSH-peroxidase. The
newlinecurrent treatment for hepatotoxicity includes drugs which influence the p-450 enzyme
newlinemechanism either by inhibiting (amiodarone, cimetidine, ciprofloxacin, etc.) or inducing
newline(rifampicin, carbamazepine, phenobarbital, phenytoin) the metabolic activity of enzymes.
