Methods: This study was an experimental laboratory with post test only control group design. A sample of male mice, aged 2-3 months, body weight ± 25-40 grams. The subjects were male mice 24 individuals, were divided into six groups randomly.

Measurement of uric acid levels using a GCU test strip, blood was taken from the mice tail one hour after the induction of hyperuricemia. Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA followed post hoc LSD test Results: The result showed blood uric acid levels throughout the test animals was significantly different (p≤0.05). The test results, post hoc LSD test showed that the positive control group and group IV, V and VI significantly different from the negative groups (p≤0.05) while there was a significant difference in the group IV, V and VI (p ≥ 0.05) with the normal control group and positive control group. Conclusion: All doses can lower uric acid levels of mice significantly. And all three doses did not differ significantly of uric acid levels compare to therapeutic doses of allopurinol. Keywords: Kersen leaves, uric acid, allopurinol, caffeine, quercetin
