Abstract

Humans have used herbal medicine to address medical conditions since the inception of civilization. This study seeks to assess the effectiveness of Piper nigrum as an anti-hyperlipidemic drug and its influence on lipid profiles. We utilized the model to evaluate the effectiveness of the plant antihyperlipidemic activity. SGPT and SGOT levels were statistically significantly reduced (p < 0.05) in groups 6 and 5, respectively, at doses of 900 mg/kg and 600 mg/kg. No groups demonstrated statistically significant results in the renal function test. Despite a slight reduction in total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, and overall cholesterol, no group exhibited statistically significant outcomes. However, the elevated dosage of 900 mg/kg showed the most significant reduction in these metrics. The ethanolic extract of this plant demonstrates significant antihyperlipidemic effects, and further research may aid in the advancement of alternative medical uses.
