Braga Nawab

Polyherbal drugs are widely used in traditional medicine systems around the world, including Sri Lankan traditional medicine. Understanding the toxicity profile of these drugs is crucial for ensuring their safety and efficacy. This article presents an overview of the acute and sub chronic toxicity profile of a specific polyherbal drug used in Sri Lankan traditional medicine. The drug's composition, traditional uses, and relevant toxicity evaluations are discussed. The results indicate a low risk of acute toxicity and no significant adverse effects on vital organs or overall health during sub chronic exposure. However, further research is warranted to validate these findings and ensure the consistent quality of the herbal ingredients.
