This document summarizes a study that evaluated the diuretic activity of ethanolic extracts of Ficus carica L. fruits in rats. Rats were treated with ethanol extracts at doses of 100 mg/kg and 200 mg/kg or with furosemide as a reference drug. The extracts produced a significant increase in urine volume as well as sodium, potassium, and chloride ion excretion compared to the control group. No toxicity was observed for the extracts at doses up to 2000 mg/kg. The 200 mg/kg extract dose produced the best results for urine output. The findings support the traditional use of F. carica as a diuretic agent.
