ECBA as antihyperlipidemic agent is given for a long - term therapeutic purpose. This
experiment was performed to investigate the subchronic toxicity of ECBA on leukocytes profile of
Wistar rats. ECBA was investigated at dose 15 mg, 120 mg, and 960 mg/200 g body weight for 90
days in 40 male Wistar rats. CMC-Na was used for control. The blood was examined for the
leukocytes profile on day 0, 45, and 90. The rats were still maintained under experimental conditions
