RESUMEN
Objective: To observe the property and degree of long-term toxicity of Kuntai and evaluate whether the toxic injure can be prevented or recovered, so as to provide the reference for clinical safe use. Methods: One handred and twenty rats were randomly divided into four groups, Kuntai (25.0, 12.5, and 5.0 g/kg) groups and control (ig same volume of distilled water) group for all being treated for 180 d, respectively. Then the rats were sacrificed 2/3 (n = 20) in each group and the anatomy and pathological biochemical detection were carried on. And the remainings (n = 10) were sacrificed after 30 d of withdrawal drug to use for the reversible experiment. Results: There is no significance of the extract from Kuntai Capsule on the growth/hematopoietic function/biochemical criterion of serum or the pathological feature, i. e. toxicity changes with obvious injury in heart, liver, spleen, lung, kidney, uterus, ovaries, testes, the pituitary gland, and brain. Conclusion: There is very low toxicity of the extract from Kuntai Capsule for the long-term safe use which is benefit in clinic.
