Abstract

Colitis is an increasingly common disease. Currently, scientists tend to find medicinal plants to treat this disease. Phuong Dong Dai Trang tablet includes: Hedychium coronarium Koenig, Coix lacryma-jobi, Dioscorea perssimilis, Cynara scolymus, Radix Paeoniae lactiflorea, Glochidion ericarpum Champ. The study was carried out to evaluate the effects of Phuong Dong Dai Trang on the acetic acid induced-colitis model in experimental animals. Wistar rats were divided into 5 groups given orally distilled water, mesalazine 560 mg/kg b.w/day, Phuong Dong Dai Trang at the doses of 540 mg/kg b.w/day and 1620 mg/kg b.w/day, respectively, for 5 days. Then rats in groups 2 to 5 were induced colitis by administering 1ml of 4% acetic acid solution into the colon. Our results showed that Phuong Dong Dai Trang at the dose of 540 mg/kg b.w/daysignificantly reduced the macroscopic and microscopic index on colitis model in rats while the dose of 1620 mg/kg b.w/day did not have a statistically significant difference compared with the model group. Conclusion: Phuong Dong Dai Trang at the dose of 540 mg/kg/b.w (equivalent to the intended human dose) reduced colitis damage in experimental model.
