Diabetes mellitus (DM) is the most critical health problem of chronic renal disorder that has become a major reason in medical treatments of dialysis and kidney transplantation. In Malaysia, Etlingera elatior has been used as a native medicine to reduce blood sugar among diabetic patients. This study aims to evaluate the therapeutic effect of crude aqueous E. elatior flowers extract (AEEFE) on streptozotocin (STZ)- induced diabetic rats taken orally. The effective dose in lowering blood glucose level in acute test was found to be 300 mg/kg in the present study, and this was further evaluated in sub-acute test. The fasting blood glucose level and the body weight of the rats were weekly monitored.
