Methanol Crude Peel Extract of Prevents Oxidative Damage in Kidneys of Rats Exposed to Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy.

Background: Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy (HAART) has been linked to oxidative damage to kidney cells leading to renal disease in people living with HIV/AIDS on HAART treatment. The toxic effects of HAART affect the patients' quality of life leading to poor adherence to their regimen. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the nephron-protective activity of methanol crude peel extract of (MPEPG) in HAART-administered Wistar rats.
