Abstract

Peptic ulcer is a common disorder that affects the lives of millions of people every year. The predominant causes of peptic ulcer are infection with the bacterium called Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) and the use of Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs). Chemical drugs used in the treatment of peptic ulcer produces side effects on long term use. Extensive research has been carried out in the area of treatment of ulcers through medicinal plants. Many medicinal plants have been reported to possess antiulcer activity. Effective plant extracts, screened by cytotoxic, genotoxic, toxicological parameters will lead to establishment as potent candidate for antiulcer drug development.
