Abstract

E. creticum has been used in folk medicine in Jordan as a remedy for scorpion stings in the rural areas and as a hypoglycemic agent. The hypoglycemic activity of an aquous decoction of plant arial parts ofE. creticum was tested in normoglycemic and streptozocin-hyperglycemic rats. Results indicate that those extract caused significant reductions in blood glucose concentration when given orally.
