Rosmarinic acid (RA) is found in herbs and spices in the Lamiaceae (mint) family and has antioxidant, antiinflammatory and antiapoptotic effects. We objective to examine the protecting efficacy of Rosmarinic acid in preventing the toxic effects of Deltamethrin. Material and Methods: In ours study we used 28 male rats. Group 1: Control group, Group 2: RA group, RA was given 20 mg/kg peroral (p.o.) for 7 days, Group 3: DM group, 35 mg/kg/dose of DM was given 24 hours before sacrification as a single dose by gavage, Group 4: RA+ DM group. Results: BUN, creatinine, AST and ALT values of the RA+DM group were lower than the DM group. TAS and TOS grades were higher in the DM group matched to the RA+DM group. The damage scores of the DM group were higher aacording as those of the RA+DM group.
