Antimalarial Properties of L. Leaf Extract in Mice: Survivability Depends Less on Parasitaemia Suppression.

has been used to treat malaria in Ghana albeit without scientific evidence of antimalarial activity and safety. This work aimed to assess the antimalarial properties and acute toxicity of the aqueous leaf extract of in murine models. Aqueous extract of the plant was analysed for both suppressive and curative antimalarial properties in chloroquine-sensitive ANKA strains of rodent -infected mice.
