Abstract
Polygoni cuspidatum has been used as treatments of dermatitis, inflammation and hyperlipidemia, and diuretic in folk medicine. In order to evaluate the urinary effect of Polygoni cuspidati Radix, its MeOH extract was administered in rats by in vivo test. We measured urine volume, chemical parameters, and electrolytes in serum and urine of the rats.The results showed that Polygoni cuspidati Radix MeOH extract had urinary volume increase and normal level parameters in rats.
