Another interesting study on Nandukkal Parpam!
Prophylactic effect of ‘Nandukkal Parpam’ (A Siddha Combination Drug) on Ethylene Glycol induced Calcium Oxalate Microlithiasis in the kidneys of Wistar rats done by N Arunai Nambiraj, TMR Panicker, S Seethalakshmi, Chinnama Abraham, M Paul Korath and K Jagadeesan of KJ Hospital Research and Post Graduate Centre, Chennai 600 084.
In this study the effect of oral administration of ‘Nandukkal parpam’ (a siddha combination drug) on calcium oxalate microlithiasis was studied in male wistar rats. Ethylene glycol and ammonium chloride in drinking water were given orally to male wistar rats to induce calcium oxalate crystals in renal tissue the initial phase of urinary stone formation. The deposition of calcium oxalate crystals in kidneys of wistar rats on ethylene glycol and treated with nandukkal parpam is much lesser than in the group of rats on ethylene glycol only (p < 0.001).
