The aim of this study was to evaluate diuretic activity of aqueous methanolic extract of Euphorbia granulate in rats. Albino rats were divided into five groups. Group I served as reference, Group II as standard and Group III, IV and V served as test. The three doses of extract (30, 50 and 100 mg/kg) were given to rats (i.p) in acute diuretic model.
