This study investigates the neuroprotective effects of a new herbal extract using a rat model of Parkinson&apos;s disease. A total of 100 male Wistar rats were employed in this study, dividing the animals into five groups: one for control, one for PD, and three for low, moderate, and high dosages of the herbal remedy. Behavioural tests of rotarod and open field, biochemical analysis for dopamine levels and markers of oxidative stress, and histological assessments for surviving dopaminergic neurons were done for four successive weeks. Improvements in motor coordination, reductions in oxidative stress, increase in dopamine levels, and survival of dopaminergic neurons showed significant improvements within herbal remedy-treated groups, with high doses showing the most pronounced effect.</p>
