Acute and Sub-chronic Toxicity Evaluation of Crude Methanolic Leaves Extract of Acacia nilotica (Linn.)

Conclusion: These results demonstrate that, while a single dose and short term oral intake of A. nilotica leaves extract caused no toxicity, prolong intake/treatment was found to be associated with alterations in hepatic and renal tissues. Thus, prolonged use of high doses of A. nilotica orally should be discouraged and lower doses encouraged.
