Aphrodisiac property of Allium sativum Linn. extract in male rat

Aphrodisiac activity of fresh aqueous extract of garlic was tested in three groups of male albino rats on 0, 7[th], 14[th], 21[st] and 28[th] day using 0.57 ml/kg, 1.13 ml/kg and 2.25 ml/kg of body weight. The result showed that daily administration of fresh aqueous extract of garlic was more effective. It increased sexual behaviours significantly even at lower dose [0.57 ml/kg] and aphrodisiac activity was increased with increasing quantity of the aqueous extract. Anyhow drug-C [2.25 ml/kg] showed maximum effect on 21st day
