The present study revealed the antiulcer activity batches using petroleum ether, chloroform and hydroalcoholic solvents of Sesbania grandiflora L. The above activities observed may be due to the presence of phytochemical constituents such as alkaloids, flavonoids, triterpenes, steroids, glycosides and tannins.
