Ginkgo biloba extract (GBE) has been used clinically for improving peripheral vascular diseases in France and Germany and is ingested widely as a herbal medicine in some countries. However, accurate information about its safety as an herbal medicine has not been sufficiently established. To address this issue, we examined the effect of GBE on hepatic drug metabolizing enzymes and their influence on hypotensive drug in rats. Male rats were fed either a control diet or diet containing GBE (0.5% w… CONTINUE READING
