Objective: To assess the hepatoprotective effect of Solanum xanthocarpum (S. xanthocarpum fruit extract against antitubercular drug induced liver toxicity in experimental animals. Methods: Ethanolic (50%) fruit extract of S. xanthocarpum (100, 200 and ton mg/kg bw) was administered daily for 35 (lays in experimental animals. Liver toxicity was induced by combination of three antitubercular drugs [isoniazid (7.5 mg/kg. rifampicin (R) 10 mg/kg and pyrazinamide 35 mg/kg] given orally as suspension for 35 days in rats. The hepatoprotective activity was assessed using various: biochemical parameters like aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine anti sit (ALT). alkaline phosphatise (ALP). total bilirubin (IRE.). all (ALB). total protein (TP). lactate dehydroginase (LDH). and serum cholesterol (CHI.). Meanwhile_ in pin) antioxidant activities as lipid peroxidation LPO), reduced glutathione (GSH). superoxide. dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) were measured in rat liver homogenate. The biochemical observations were supplemented by histopathological examination. Results: The results demonstrated that treatment with S. xanthocarpum significantly (P
