The affect of silymarin on the levels of serum ALT and GGT in ethanol-induced hepatotoxicity in albino rats has also been tested. Eighteen male albino rats aged 6-8 weeks, weighing 150-200 gm, were divided into 3 groups of 6 rats each: group A as control, group B as rats taking ethanol at a dose of 0.6 mL (0.5 gm)/100 gm/day, and group C taking ethanol and silymarin at a dose of 0.5 gm/100 gm/day and 20 mg/100 gm/day, respectively, for 8 weeks. Silymarin tends to normalize liver function test in alcoholic liver disease [55] .
