Abstract：
:Effect of coumestans isolated form the leaves of W. calendulacea was evaluated in paracetamol induced liver damage. The increased serum enzyme levels (lactate dehydrogenase, alanine and aspartate transaminase and alkaline phophatase) by paracetamol induction were significantly lowered due to coumestans treatment. Results of this study revealed that coumestans of W. calendulacea afforded a significant protective action in the alleviation of paracetamol induced hepatocellular injury.
