rhamnoides L., Zingiber officinalie Roscoe, Saussurea Lappa C.B.Clark, Sal ammoniacum, Tronae veneni, is recommended
for women experiencing menstrual retention disorders. In recent years, Shimshin-6 has been widely used to
promote postpartum uterine involution for women and our study aimed to evaluate and determine the acute and chronic
toxicity effects of Shimshin-6.
Aim:
To evaluate and substantiate the acute and chronic toxicity effects of Shimshin-6.
Materials and Methods:
The acute toxicity of Shimshin-6 was evaluated using the rapid method described by V.B. Prozorovsky
(1978) by administering intraperitoneal injections of the medicinal extract in white mice to determine the lethal
dose. The active dose was determined following the methodology of I.P. Zapadnyuk (1983). Chronic toxicity was evaluated
in Wistar rats according to the OECD 407 (2008) guidelines. The test animals were administered Shimshin-6 in tablet
form (90 mg/kg and 180 mg/kg) and decoction form (tang) (162 mg/kg) daily for 60 days. At the end of the experiment,
biochemical and complete blood analyses were conducted, along with histopathological examination of major organs.
The study was conducted with ethical approval granted by the Ethics Committee of the Mongolian National University of
Medical Sciences (MNUMS) on October 25, 2024.
Results:
The LD50 for Shimshin-6 tablets was 4.47 (3.39–5.1) g/kg, indicating low acute toxicity based on the K.K.
Sidorov classification. The LD50 for the decoction form was 8.1 (7.1–9.4) g/kg, suggesting it is non-toxic. Regarding
chronic toxicity, platelet count was significantly reduced compared to the healthy control group: Shimshin-6 tablet group:
46% reduction at 90 mg/kg and 29.7% reduction at 180 mg/kg. Shimshin-6 decoction group: 60.5% reduction at 162 mg/
kg. Additionally, hemoglobin levels in the decoction group (162 mg/kg) decreased by 15.7% (p<0.05). Biochemical analysis
showed a 36.3% reduction in total cholesterol (LDL-C) levels in the tablet group (180 mg/kg) and decoction group
(162 mg/kg) compared to the control (p<0.05).
Conclusion
Shimshin-6 tablets showed low acute toxicity in experimental mice. However, long-term administration may
lead to a reduction in platelet count.

Introduction: Diabetes mellitus is a complex, progressive
disease, which is accompanied by multiple cardiovascular
complications. Oxidative stress is significantly increased in
diabetic patients and may lead to great haemostatic
disturbances existing in these patients. The major thrust was to
review current literature on potential interrelationships between
haemostatic and metabolic abnormalities in diabetes mellitus.
Zomoshin-6 decoction and Caragana jubata (Fabaceace) used
in traditional Mongolian medicine have been shown to have
haemostatic and antiviral effects.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to examine the effect of
Caragana jubata (Pall.) Poir. and Zomoshin-6 decoction on
haemostatic parameters and lipid profiles in diabetic rats.
Methods: Diabetes was induced in rats by using alloxan at a
dose of 150 mg/kg. Control group received distilled water.
Caragana jubata (Pall.) Poir and Zomoshin-6 were administered
orally at doses of 2.0 g/kg and 0.2 g/kg respectively. Aspirin
(100mg/kg) was used for comparison as a standard medicine.
All treatments were performed daily for 3 weeks. Blood samples
were obtained and analyzed for fibrinogen levels, prothrombin
time, triglycerides (TG) and plasma uric acid.
Results and conclusions: Levels of TG (p<0.05), glucose
(p<0.03) and plasma uric acid (p<0.02) were increased in rats
administered alloxan compare to control and these were
significantly reduced by Caragana jubata and Zomoshin-6
