This study was conducted to evaluate the potential antiurolithiatic effects of Lawsonia Inermis Linn. in rat models. Animals were divided into seven groups and urolithiasis was induced by ethylene glycol (0.75% v/v) in drinking water to all groups (Groups II-VII) except normal control (Group I) for 28 days. Methanolic extracts of Lawsonia inermis (MELI) bark (300 & 500 mg/kg, p.o.) were administered once daily, from 15th day to 28th day as curative regimen and from 1st day to 28th day as preventive regimen. Cystone (750 mg/kg, p.o.) was used as a standard drug for comparison. After 28 days, various biochemical parameters like urine volume, pH were measured. Calcium, phosphate and oxalate were measured in urine and kidney homogenate. Serum creatinine, uric acid and urea nitrogen were estimated. Histopathology of kidney was investigated. Treatment with the MELI extract significantly (p<0.05) restored all elevated parameters including calcium, phosphate and oxalate in urine and kidney homogenate; creatinine, uric acid and urea nitrogen in serum when compared to model control group. The histopathological study of the kidney also supported the above results. It was concluded that methanolic extract of bark of Lawsonia inermis Linn. has significant antiurolithiatic effect in experimental rats.
