Abstract

The research was carried out to investigate the effects of Galega officinalis on the dynamics of glucose concentration changes in the blood of healthy rats and under experimental streptozotocin-induced diabetes. The hypoglycemic effect of the extract both in the control group and in animals with diabetes was shown. It was also found that the medication obtained from ethanolic extract of Galega officinalis had a prolonged hypoglycemic effect after ceasing the treatment.
