Use of camel milk for reduction of Acetaminophen induced Hepatotoxicity: a review

Journal Title: Pakistan Journal of Pharmaceutical Research - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 2

Abstract

The chemical composition of camel milk in various aspects is quite different from other animal milk and is abundant source of vitamins, minerals, most significantly vitamin B and vitamin C and iron. It is easily digested by lactose-intolerant individuals. Camel milk protein has high amount of lactoferrin, lactoperoxidase, immunoglobulins, IgA, IgG which are effective against most bacteria and virus. It is rich source of ash content possessing strong antioxidant property. Medicinal properties reported in previous literature are hepatoprotective, antidiabetic,antibacterial and antiviral. Review will focused on protective effect of camel milk in acetaminophen induced toxicity. Acetaminophen cause marked increase in serum glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase (SGPT), serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase (SGOT), alkaline phosphate (ALP) and cholesterol. While use of camel milk significantly reduces SGOT, SGPT, ALP, cholesterol, and triglyceride levels, and improved the liver enzymes.
