All over the world, the prevalence of diabetes mellitus is increasing. The main goal of this experiment was to identify the most effective fraction of aqueous‐methanol extract of Curcuma amada rhizome for its antidiabetic and antioxidative properties. The fractions (n‐hexane or chloroform or ethyl‐acetate or n‐butanol) of aqueous‐methanol extract were administered to the streptozotocin‐induced diabetic groups at a dose of 10 mg/100 g body weight/day for 4 weeks. The antidiabetic and antioxidative efficacies of the fractions on glycemic, enzymatic, genomic, and histological sensors and pancreatic β‐cells population and general toxicity were assessed. After the fraction treatment, out of the fraction used, the significant recovery in most sensors was noted at the ethyl‐acetate fraction in glycemic, enzymatic, genomic, β cells population, diameter of the pancreatic islet and toxicity level. In conclusion, it may be stated that the ethyl‐acetate fraction of C. amada was the most effective solvent in this study. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: The ethyl‐acetate fraction of aqueous‐methanol extract of Curcuma amada has antidiabetic property, it gives a clue to the herbal medicine manufacturing company to produce phytotherapeutic drugs to cure the complication related to diabetes.
