ABSTRACT
This
study investigated the effect of ethanol leaf extract of Ficus Capensis on the
lipid profile and haematological indices on Wistar albino rats. The extract was
tested at 200mg/kg and 400mg/kg given orally for 28days. The result showed that
both doses ofthe extract did not cause any significant (p > 0.05) difference
both in haematological parameters and lipid profile oftreated rats when
compared with the control. In the acute toxicity study, there was neither death
nor any other sign of toxicity indicating that the extract was well tolerated
by the rats at the doses tested. These results suggest that using Ficus
Capensis leaves for healing may not cause any adverse on toxic effects on
hematology and lipid profile.
