The study is an attempt to explore the efficacy of Eclipta alba as a hepatoprotectant against paracetamol induced hepatotoxicity. Paracetamol was used to induce toxicity. The animals were grouped into four along with control. Analysis of phytochemical constituents of the plant and biochemical parameters in the serum of the experimental animals along with membrane marker enzymes were carried out. The results proved that E.alba is a good hepatoprotective agent.
