Abstract:
The exact of Zingiber officinale Rosc (ZO) and ZO-Typhonium divaricatum Decne (TD) complex were used to evaluate its antiemetic effect and acute toxicity on young dogs and mice. The results showed that the extract of ZO in dose of 0.1 g/kg body weigh, ZO 0.1 g and TD 0.12 g complex/kg body weigh per oral route have antiemetic effect in comparison with control one. Both of raw and pure TD extracts have equal effect. ZO and TD have a quite low acute toxicity
