Cardiovascular Activities Of Vernonia Amygdalina
A few reviews on the ethno-medicinal use of Vernonia amygdalina for hypertension have been documented, but the scientific investigations are still very limited. The research was aimed to study the in vitro and in vivo cardiovascular effects of V. amygdalina leaf extracts. The dried leaf samples were...
