Abstract: Abstract Bitter leaf (Vernonia amygdalina Delile), family Asteraceae or Compositae is a perennial shrub that is widely used locally in Nigeria for both therapeutic and nutritional purposes. This study was conducted to evaluate the phytochemical composition and the effect of ethanol leaf extract of the plant on haematological parameter and lipid profile of rat. Sixteen (16) albino wistar rats were randomly divided into four groups of 4 rats each. All groups were fed with growers mash. Groups 2, 3 and 4 further received daily oral doses of 200 mg, 300 mg and 400 mg per kg body weight of the extract, respectively. After 14 days of administration, the animals were sacrificed and blood was collected through orbital-plexus. The presence of alkaloids, tannins, phenolics, saponins, flavonoids, terpenoids, glycosides, carbohydrate and resins were detected with saponins as the most abundant while steroids was found to be absent. Results equally showed a non-significant (p>0.05) decrease at the highest concentration (400 mg/kg body weight) in PCV (27.2± 1.7), Hb (75.30 ± 1.10), RBC (0.52± 0.01) and PLT (142.50 ±1.30). However, WBC (8.58± 0.50), MCH (153.69±2.80), MCV (0.41±0.0) and MCHC (332.0±2.90) increase significantly (p<0.05) at 400mg/kg when compare to control (41.0±1.8), (135.80±2.50), (1.31±0.03), (303.80±5.10), (1.47±0.40), (102.99±1.40), (0.33± 0.30) and (315.80±1.70) respectively. Result also indicated a non-significant (p>0.05) decrease in the lipid profile of the test rats relative to control. It was therefore concluded that the bitter leaf extract is rich in bioactive compounds but negatively affect the haematological parameters at 400mg/kg body weight with no remarkable effect on the lipid profile at the administered doses within the period of the research.
