Abstract
Survival of mice after lethal doses of lyophilizate from Amanita phalloides ('death cap') was markedly increased by pretreatment with single doses of kutkin, a mixture of iridoid glycosides picroside I and kutkoside isolated from the roots of Picrorhiza kurroa. The protective effect of kutkin was comparable to that of silibinin. The curative efficacy of kutkin appeared to be slightly superior.Entities:
