Abstract
The active fraction from Ixora coccinea flowers prevented a decrease in body weight, haemoglobin levels and leucocyte counts of mice treated with cisplatin. It also significantly prolonged the life span of cisplatin treated mice and maintained their blood urea nitrogen levels in the near normal range, indicating its chemoprotective effects.
