Abstract
Background
Drug-induced
hepatotoxicity,
particularly
from
ethanol
and
acetaminophen
(APAP),
is
a
pressing
global
health
challenge.
This
damage
arises
oxidative

manifesting
as

Resveratrol
silymarin,
recognized
for
their
antioxidant
anti-inflammatory
properties,
offer
potential
hepatoprotective
benefits.
Methods

Thirty
Wistar

were
divided
into
five
groups:

ethanol-APAP-resveratrol,
ethanol-APAP-silymarin,
ethanol-APAP-resveratrol-silymarin.
Treatments

Medicinal
