Antihyperlipidemic Effect of Different Fractions Obtained from Teucrium polium Hydroalcoholic Extract in Rats

Conclusions:This study showed strong antihyperlipidemic effect of various fractions derived from hydroalcoholic extract ofT. polium.Chloroform and aqueous fractions may be worthy candidates for isolation of bioactive hypolipidemic constituents. However, possible hepatotoxicity should be considered for clinical application.Keywords:Dexamethasone, hepatotoxicity, hyperlipidemia, Teucrium polium
