Abstract

The present study was aimed to investigate the antioxidant and antihyperlipidemic activity of Barleria terminalis in High Fat Diet (HFD) induced hyperlipidemic rats. Phytochemical screening revealed the presence of flavonoids, phenols, glycosides, tannins, saponins, and steroids. Treatment with Barleria terminalis extract significantly reduced total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL, and VLDL while increasing HDL levels. The extract also improved antioxidant parameters and showed protective effects in histopathological studies. The study concluded that Barleria terminalis possesses significant antioxidant and antihyperlipidemic activity and may be useful in the management of hyperlipidemia.
