R. dentatus at doses 250 and 500 mg/kg significance decreased (p<0.001) the elevated level of ALT, AST, ALP and bilirubin induced by paracetamol and results are comparable (p<0.001) with silymarin. The results were supported by histopathological investigations, phytochemical screening and detection of hepatoprotective active constituents e.g quercetin, kaempferol, myricetin by HPLC. So, it is concluded that <em>R. dentatus</em> has hepatoprotective effect against paracetamol liver damage in mice.</p>}, number={3}, journal={Bangladesh Journal of Pharmacology}, author={Saleem, Mohammad and Ahmed, Bilal and Karim, Mahrukh and Ahmed, Shahzad and Ahmad, Mobasher and Qadir, M.
