The effects of oral administration of Hibiscus sabdariffa aqueous extract on some haematological parameters of wistar albino rats were studied. A total of twenty five (25) male albino rats were grouped randomly into groups. Group A (control), Group B (0.6g/100ml of water of HS extract) Group C (1.2g/100ml HS extract), Group D (1.8g/100ml HS extract) and Group E (1.8g/100ml + vitamin C) and treatment period was 28 days. A decrease in body weight of the rats was observed except in Group A (control) and Group E. Haematological parameters; (Haemoglobin (Hb), packed cell volume (PCV), total white blood cells (WBC) and differentials) increased significantly (p<0.05) in all the groups when compared with Group A (control) in a dose dependent manner. The study suggests that administration of aqueous extract of Hibiscus sabdariffa might be beneficial to the haematopoietic system.
