This research was aimed to study the effects of Buo-Sai crude extracts and other 4 herbs used in stomachic mixture on CYP3A4 enzyme activity. Metabolic tests was carried out in-vitro using rat liver microsome and testosterone. The amount of 6β-Hydroxytestosterone, obtained from each metabolic reaction with or without herbal crude extracts was determined by using High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) technique then converted into %inhibition. The results revealed that the aqueous extracts from 5 parts of Buo-Sai (Nymphaea lotus) were affected onto CYP3A4 enzyme activity in different degree of inhibition i.e. petal 30.16%, leaf 27.32%, flower stalk 17.52%, leaf stalk 6.3% and pollen 2.64%. The aqueous extracts from 4 herbs of stomachic mixture i.e. Mixture of these 4 herbal extracts 26.07%, Sa-Mul-Wang (Cinamomum bejolghota) 22.8%, Cha-Em-Tes (Glycyrrhiza glabra) 17.25%, Ob-Choei-Tes (Cinnamomum verum) 16.77%, Kan-Plu (Syzygium aromaticum) 4.28%, and mixture of these 4 herbal extracts plus menthol and camphor 5.39%. The hexane extracts from 5 parts of Bau-Sai (Nymphaea lotus) i.e. petal 29.91%, leaf stalk 19.94%, pollen 16.34%, leaf 7.17% and flower stalk 2.88%. The alcohol extracts from 5 parts of Bau-Sai (Nymphaea lotus) i.e. pollen 50.42%, leaf stalk 35.59%, leaf 30.86%, petal 27.05%, flower stalk and 14.78%. It could be conclude that the different part and different kind of herbs have different inhibitory effect onto activity of CYP3A4
