Various plants such as fruits and vegetables contain in their composition phytonutrients and nutraceuticals important for health, for prevention and treatment of diseases, such as watercress. The main objective of this research study was to determine the hepatoprotective effect of the hydroalcoholic extract of the leaves of Nasturtium officinale W.T. Aiton (watercress) in albino rats induced with paracetamol to acute hepatotoxicity. The study was of an experimental type, the phytochemical march study was carried out on the extract and for the hepatoprotective experiment, 36 albino rats divided into 6 groups (G) were used, which were administered orally; G1: Physiological saline solution (SSF) 5 mg / kg; G2: SSF 5 mg / kg + Paracetamol 400 mg / kg, G3: Watercress 200 mg / kg + Paracetamol; G4: Watercress 300 mg / kg + Paracetamol; G5: Watercress 500 mg / kg + Paracetamol and G6: Silymarin 100 mg / kg + Paracetamol. Paracetamol was the agent that induces acute liver toxicity. Results; in the phytochemical march the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, phenolic compounds, saponins, anthraquinones, steroids and / or triterpenoids was found, the extract showed solubility in polar solvents such as water and ethanol. The dose of the 500 mg / kg extract showed a better hepatoprotective effect than the other doses tested, that is, the effect was dose-dependent and significant (p <0.05) compared to the control group, this same dose (500 mg / kg) showed no significant difference when compared with the silymarin group (p> 0.05), the effect was evidenced by a decrease in the levels of TGO, TGO, alkaline phosphatase, total bilirubin, total proteins and albumin increase. Conclusion, the hydroalcoholic extract of the leaves of Nasturtium officinale W.T. Aiton (watercress) showed to have hepatoprotective effect in albino rats induced with paracetamol to acute hepatotoxicity.
