Abstract
:
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is rich in plants; the flora comprises about 2250 plants distributed throughout the Kingdom. Nevertheless, it is variable due to the extended extremities of the Kingdom. Many plants have been used by the local communities for the treatment of a large number of ailments. The folk medicine has always the upper hand in the treatment of widely spread diseases among local communities. Diabetes mellitus and hepatotoxicity are no exceptions. Diabetes mellitus is one of the widely spread chronic diseases not only nationwide, but also worldwide. Therefore, it not only threatens the life of many people but also leads to several complications such as atherosclerosis, hypertension, renal failure, weak vision, in addition to sexual debility and impotence. On the other hand, one of the serious recent diseases which has accompanied the adoption of some modern food life styles as well as exposure to many environmental pollutants and intensive intake of medications is hepatotoxicity which claims the lives of many people world wide. In this research proposal, we will try to test the effects of some medicinal plants growing in the Western region of the Kingdom in experimental animals hoping to find some that can be used for the treatment and management of diabetes and hepatotoxicity. Adjustment of doses will be tried to avoid side effects when these plants are used in folk medicine, and in further studies, they can also be formulated in suitable pharmaceutical formulations. In the future, we plan to carry out pre-clinical and clinical trials for adopting pharmaceutical dosage forms with maximum efficacy and minimum side effects that can be prescribed to patients.
