Materials & Methods: In the present study, acute toxicity study was carried o ut as per OECD guideline 423. Anti - asthmatic activity of Zeal Herbal Granules was investigated against c ompound 48/80 - induced mast cell degranulation. Percentage mast cell degranulation was calculated at different concentration level i.e.1, 10, 100 and 100 0μg/mL. Results: Zeal Herbal Granules showed significant protection of rat mesenteric mast cells from disruption caused by compound 48/80. Significant dose depende nt effect was observed in percentage mast cell degranulation at different dose level of Zeal Herbal Granules in comparison to negative control. 26.83% mast cell degranulation was observed at 100μg/mL dose level of Zeal Herbal Granules. Conclusion: The present study revealed that Zeal Herbal Granules has significant anti - asthmatic activity against compound 48/80 - induced mast cell degranulation comparable to that produced by Ketotifen fumarate.
