Renal diseases pose a tremendous economic burden worldwide, and the only treatment options are renal transplantation dialysis, which remain unaffordable to low-income people. This study evaluated potential of polyherbal tea extract (RTE) as remedy for kidney disease using gentamicin-induced damage model in guinea pigs. Polyherbal was purchased from market extracted with 70% ethanol. RTE phytochemicals were screened qualitatively chemoprofiled by High-performance liquid chromatography. Acute sub-acute toxicity studies on carried out. To investigate possible effects RTE, groups animals received either gentamicin intraperitoneally alone or combination oral administration (200, 600 1000 mg/kg/day) 14 days. On day 15, biochemical markers inflammation assessed. The caused no significant changes blood biochemistry histomorphology, LD50 >5000 mg/kg. Significantly (p<0.001) reduced serum creatinine urea levels observed when compared gentamicin-treated group. also showed significantly increased superoxide dismutase catalase activities malondialdehyde, IL-6 TNF-α protects against nephrotoxicity pigs through its antioxidant anti-inflammatory effects.
