The objectives of the study were to assess the potential of herbal formulation made up of Wedeliachinensis leaves and Boerhaaviadiffusa roots in possessing activities like nephroprotectivity and hepatoprotectivity. Nephroprotective and hepatoprotective activity was evaluated using MTT cytotoxicity assay using mammalian cell culture. The results of the hepatoprotective and nephroprotective activities showed that the formulation mixture of herbs Wedeliachinensis and Boerhaaviadiffusa roots is an excellent source of organ stimulator with high therapeutical importance. The hepatoprotective and nephroprotective properties make this formulation a unique one focusing on liver and kidney diseases.
