Effects of aqueous and ethanol extract of dried leaves of Pseudocalymma alliaceum (Bignonaceae) on haematological and biochemical parameters of wistar rats

Conclusions The daily intake of P. alliaceum did not produce acute toxicity to 50 mg/kg which may be interpreted as toxic signs or biological damage, but liver and renal function changes at dosages of 100 and 200 mg/kg; however, the reduction ability of white blood cells count could be used as a basis for specific studies on the treatment of patients with leukemia.
