Research was conducted to determine the antihyperlipidemic activity of the combination of Roselle Petal AndGarlic Chives Leaves ethanol extracton hyperlipidemic rats. To determine the potential effects of a combination of garlic chives leaves and rosella, the test animals were divided into seven treatment groups consisting of a hyperlipidemic control group, rosella group (500 mg / KgBW), garlic chives leaves group (110 mg / KgBW), the combination of Roselle Petal And Garlic Chives Leaves respectively 125 : 82.5 mg / KgBW, 250 : 55 mg / KgBW, and 375 : 27.5 mg / KgBW.
Total cholesterol test results obtained percent reduction in total cholesterol rosella group (500 mg / KgBW) amounted to 11.49%, garlic chives leaves group (110 mg / KgBW) amounted to 13.70%, the combination of roselle petal and garlic chives leaves125 : 82.5 mg / KgBW, 250 : 55 mg / KgBW, and 375 : 27.5 mg / KgBW, respectively by 40.60%; 46.80% and 32.80%. The test results obtained percent decrease in triglyceride levels of triglyceride levels rosella group (500 mg / KgBW) amounted to 16.40%, garlic chives leaves group (110 mg / KgBW) amounted to 27.68%, combination of roselle petal and garlic chives leaves 125 :82.5 mg / KgBW, 250 : 55 mg / KgBW, and 375 : 27.5 mg / KgBW, respectively by 18.67%; 45.24% and 15.76%.
The combination of roselle petal and garlic chives leaves250 : 55 mg / KgBW more effective to reduce total cholesterol and triglyceride blood of test animals than others.
