Abstract

This study was carried out to find out the antidiabetic effect of Haritakyadi kwath in type 2 diabetes patients. The study was performed in two different groups for a period of 90 days One group received metformin 500mg and other received Metformin 500mg plus Haritakyadi kwath. Fasting blood glucose level(FBG) and Post prandial blood glucose level(PPBG) Were estimated at the time of enrolment in the study and then after 30 days and 90 days. The drop in HbA1c was more in tn the group which received Metformin plus Haritakyadi kwath. All of the patients were observed for hypoglycemic episodes at every visit from Day 1 to day 90. Thus from the results we can conclude that Haritakyadi kwath can be used as as adjuvant in type 2 Diabetes Melitus Patients.
