It is a natural strategy that has evolved by nature to more efficacy with low cost.Methods: This study is designed to evaluate the chemopreventive effect of a combined drug sample which is prepared by mixing an equal portion of stigmasterol and palmatine isolated from Azadirachta indica and Tinospora cordifolia respectively at a concentration of 100 mg/kg and 200 mg/kg body weight during the whole concentration.Results: At the end of the study, it was found that this combined drug sample decreased the number of tumors and their size. This drug significantly reduced the serum level of glutamate pyruvate transaminase, alkaline phosphatase, glutamate oxalate transaminase, and bilirubin and enhanced the level of oxidative enzyme level of glutathione, superoxide dismutase, and catalase, and inhibit the level of lipid peroxides.Discussion: The result suggests that combined drug samples exhibit a chemopreventive effect which is better than the effect of individual drugs (stigmasterol and palmatine).Keywords: synergistic effect, anticancer, palmatine, stigmasterol, Swiss albino mice
