Data were expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 5); D₀: before treatment; D₄: after completing treatment. ^∗Values are significantly different (p < 0.05) as compared to negative control. ^∗∗Values are more significantly different (p < 0.01) as compared to negative control. Abbreviations: AW, Aloe weloensis; BWt, body weight (g); CQ, chloroquine; NC, negative control; PCV, packed cell volume; Temp, temperature; SEM, standard error of mean.
