ABSTRACT
The pharmacological and biological properties and chemical constituents of plants from the plant Boerhaavia erecta which is widely used in folk medicine. In the present study, the anti-inflammatory, diuretic activity of ethanolic, ethylacetate extracts and colum isolated compound SU I of whole plant of Boerhaavia erecta were studied and the activity was compared with Diclofenac sodium, Furosemide as standard.
