The purpose of this study was to investigate the hypoglycemic effects of the extract of Prosopis farcta on adult male rats and glucose uptake activity in 3T3 L1 adipocyte cells. Results: Groups treated with the doses of 40 mg/kg BW of the extract lowered the blood glucose levels similar to glibenclamide. A significant decrease in plasma glucose levels was shown in the rats treated with 60 mg/kg BW of the extract compared with the group treated with glibenclamide. The results of this study indicate that the glucose-lowering property of the Prosopis farcta extract is more effective than glibenclamide. The maximum blood plasma glucose level lowering was shown after 2 days of treatment with the extract of P. farcta at 60 mg/kg BW oral and 8 ml/kg BW subcutaneous administrations compared to the control group (p %U https://eijppr.com/article/antidiabetics-and-glucose-uptake-activity-of-prosopis-farcta-on-stz-induced-diabetic-rats-and-3t3-l1-adipocyte-cell-line
