Abstract:
Objective To observe the long-term toxicity of sustained-release dropping pills of Rhynchophylla total alkaloids in rats.Methods 80 Wistar rats were randomly divided into high dose group, middle dose group, low dose group and normal group. The rats were consecutively drenched for 12 weeks. The general status of the animals was observed daily in medication duration and body weight, daily appetite, quantity were recorded every 2 weeks. All animals were sacrificed on drenched 12 weeks and 2 weeks after discontinuation, then the content of WBC, RBC, Hb, PLT, LYM, NEU and ALT, AST, ALP, BUN, Cr were detected. Ratio of viscera was measured and the major organs were examined by the pathology.Results Continuous intragastric administration for 12 weeks after high dose group rats, poor diet, weight growth was slow;no significant changes of Hematology was found;The ALT, AST and ALP of high dose group rats increased[respectively(77.5±11.9)U/L,(210.4±21.7)U/L,(220.6±19.8)U/L], compared with the blank control group[respectively(55.2±12.1)U/L,(180.4±21.3)U/L,(190.3±22.6)U/L], the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). The ratio of liver body in high dose group(3.86±0.29)was higher than the control group(3.52±0.25), the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). And liver degeneration, focal necrosis was found.Conclusion The main chronic toxic damage is liver damage caused by sustained-release dropping pills of Rhynchophylla total alkaloids of long-term large delivery.
